It's not caused by software, unless the mouse interprets data sent to it by some program as a request to disconnect itself. (But of course, that could not explain the initial 45-minute delay.) It could easily be caused by something like an intermittently bad USB cable connection. Have you tried using this mouse with a different computer?
