What kind of mouse are you using. Optical? Wheel? Do you notice anything out of the ordinary in normal windows operation? Are you using generic drivers from microsoft or the manufacturers drivers?

See if you can get updated drivers, or switch to a generic windows driver for the mouse. As for the power supply what's it's power rating, and how many amps on the 12v rail? Seems as though you're setting up a gaming computer, do you also have a high performance graphicas card? Those things can eat up quite a few watts. Even if you're getting a false alarm it might not hurt to get a good PSU.
