Wireless mouse, annoying low battery warning

I have recently taken delivery of a new home PC (HP Pavilion T461) on a tax free lease deal from my employer so I had little choice but got a great price. The PC comes with a wireless mouse and keyboard that each take 2 AA batteries. When the mouse batteries are starting to run low I get an annoying pop up window appear telling me to replace the batteries, but every time I try to move the cursor over the window to click the "no go away I will change the batteries later button" the mouse comes back to life and the window disappears. A few seconds later the whole process starts off all over again so I give up and change the still perfectly good batteries in the mouse.

I am now comming close to selling the wireless mouse and keyboard to some other mug on eBay and buying replacements with cables attached, unless somebody can come up with a way to disable these annoying warnings.
