USB port not recognizing mouse (again)

A fair while ago the usb port my g7 receiver was plugged into stopped working properly, the receiver/battery charger was still getting power but the mouse just wasn't responding. I tried drivers and that didn't help, then after someone on 5punk said to try a different usb port I did - and that worked fine. Until now. Same exact thing again.
I'm running out of usb ports.

These are ports on your motherboard I take it? Do other things work in them?

i think it will be driver related.
Did you use a slipstreamed or drive image based windows install by any chance?

Fista or XP? I've had my mouse stop working in Fista. It's a common problem.

Did they figure out what caused that? I used to get t on my Laptop before I kicked it in the fuck and formatted. It's been dandy since then.

DriverMax exported drivers to restore drivers I'd exported months before and knew worked.

Yes, the ports are the ones on the motherboard. Everything else works fine in them.
I don't use a slipstreamed/drive image based windows install.
And surprisingly the first port that stopped recognizing it now works fine again.
