Ah, that makes sense. So the keyboard and mouse operate under USB1 but as soon
as I put in a USB flash drive, it showed up under USB2.

I did so, with keyboard and mouse on rear USB ports and... success! Then I was
curious and started removing options from !USBKick's Choices to see which one
was the fix - I initially assumed it was the HID refresh but eventually nothing
was ticked and after restarts, both devices were still fine. So I removed
!USBKick from running in !Boot and things are still fine. Now I'm not sure if
something I've done in the last few days has fixed it outside of !USBKick
(though I can't think of anything I've done that would be remotely related to
USB) - or if !USBKick has left something behind in the !Boot sequence that's
bringing both devices to life, even though it's no longer running itself.

The first mouse was a Belkin mouse - the second was a Microsoft mouse (hey,
they make nice mice, if nothing else!)
Thanks for your help Ian
