Warning: receiver channel changed - wireless... (by 4 users)

posted by Ota2 on Jan 07, 2007

Report abuse

A window that says "Warning! Receiver Channel Changed" keeps popping up on my screen and won't go away. It gives instructions on how to change the channel IDs for the wireless keyboard and mouse (which I have done repeatedly). If I close the window it pops up again in two or three seconds.
Anyway to get rid of the annoying window?

I have the same problem.

I had the same problem. Couldn't find the solution on the Gateway website, but when I googled the problem, I found this site, where you suggested I changed the batteries. That was the problem. As soon as I changed them, the pop-up went away. Thank you.

I contacted Gaeway Support. They quickly answered and suggested that I change the batteries in my wireless mouse and/or keyboard. I did. It was the mouse. As soon as the new batteries were in, the popup went away and stayed away.

I changed my mouse to a USB connection instead. If it is really the batteries in the other mouse, then it is using far too many for me, as this is the third time in as many months that I got that aggravating popup message.

I've changed the batteries in both my keyboard and mouse and the message still won't go away.
