USB optical Mouse won't work since parallels upgrade

I still have one small problem since upgrading parallels.

I cannot get Windows to work with my USB mouse. It works fine in OSX and it worked in windows before the upgrade. I have tried reinstalling the Logitech driver but windows keeps giving me the error that it cannot start the mouse. When I plug in the USB wireless device into the laptop the parallels window pops up asking if I want to connect it to the virtual machine, I click yes but then when Windows detects it, it always says their was a problem installing the device.. I don't know what else to try. Any ideas? There is no option for mouse in the Virtual Machine Configuration window. The USB is active in the VM config.

What else

Thanks.
 
You forgot to say which build of parallels and of the OS

I just use the M S Basic Optical mouse with a USB cable and neither batteries nor ball, it is very light and totally reliable

An MS 5 button mouse needs drivers which messes things up in this dual OS system

I like to keep things simple
