    does it stay locked up forever or only for a little while??

    if it is just a few minutes, then something is running and not quite finished before your mouse is released.

    It completely locks up and freezes. No matter what I do, it doesn't move.

    go to the manufacturer's website and download the driver for the mouse and then reinstall the driver, that is one solution.

    below thread has a couple of solutions:

    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...572-bbd4-ba7cf41d143a?page=1&tm=1413842094977

    worked for some but not others. :)

    also does it do the same thing in safe mode??

    if not then it probably is a third party install that is causing the freeze, what have you installed lately??
