Flakey USB Ports and USB Mice

I seem to have bad luck with USB ports on both my homebuilt machines
(a couple of MSI 48N Neo Platinum/AMD 64 CPU) and USB mice (several
Logitech (MX Revolution and G7 and a couple of off brands) and an HP
DV5 notebook.

One by one the ports I connect the mice to eventually stop recognizing
the device and uninstalling and reinstalling the device doesn't work.
Removing the device and plugging the dongle back in gets no response
(as if I had not plugged anything into the port). However, moving the
dongle to a different port works for a while until it too fails.

Any ideas what's going on? Is this just built in obsolescence?

Don't try to beat a dead horse...
