I just built a new system, and when i shutdown, the mouse stays lit up. if i unplug it(ps2 port) and plug back in(when shut off),led goes off. i have tried different drivers,nothing has worked.

system specs
abit BX133 raid
p3 700
512m ram
2 30gig maxtors in raid O
soundblaster live
ati aiw128 AGP

 
I don't know for sure since i don't have an optical mouse, but sometimes when my computer doesn't shutdown properly, the numlock light on my keyboard stays lit(i have the abit be6-2 mobo). Is it shutting down ok? If it is then I dunno 🙂
 
I think it's because ATX systems (maybe only some of them, depends on mobo probably) still supply power to your keyboard/mouse. My keyboard lights are on when the system is off too (this is ps/2?).
 
One solution is to plug comp and all peripherals into a surge strip.
After shut-down, flip switch on strip.
 
Mine stays on..
I have the explorer

I think it's the Motherboard.. cuz some motherboard have features such as auto boot up or boot up by a click of a mouse.. therefore it's supplying the powers to your mouse.. don't quote me on it. but i think that's how it is.

my motherboard will auto boot up everyday @ 7 am
 
Interesting...I'm using an intellimouse Optical on my Asus K7M, an ATX motherboard and it goes out when the system's off. I wonder why some boards still keep power going to the mouse port.
