Greg,
You may be right about hardware.
Try booting in SAFE mode.
Try resetting the logic board - Unplug the computer, press the reset button on the logic board next to the PCI slot. Wait 30 seconds then plug it in.
Try taking everything out of the computer and test as a base computer.
Reseat the Bluetooth chip and check antenna connector.
That should isolate it for you but let me know.

Subject: [Avid-L2] Weird Mac / mouse behavior
Forgive me if I asked this question before - the problem temporarily slipped off my radar.
I have one Mac Pro (Cheesgrater) that has a 'sticky' mouse. That is, the mouse will just briefly stop working, about once every 30-60 seconds, only for about a second. No input is possible at that time. It's obviously super irritating while editing - or doing anything, really - you just have to wait for the system to come back.
I've tried different mice, and I've recently completely reinstalled the OS and applications from scratch, to a new system drive.
the problem happens in any software, even on the OS level.
I can only conclude that this is an issue with the CPU or motherboard. It's such that I avoid using that editing system because of this irritating glitch - but I'd like to make that room viable again, if possible, without simply swapping out the entire mac (although that's definitely on the table.)
(It just occurred to me that I AM using a USB extender to the mouse, so I may try bypassing that and testing direct to the CPU, but I suspect the extender is fine.)
Has anyone else experienced this problem? Any ideas for a resolution? old school tricks like PRAM zap also don't seem to make a difference.
