USB Mouse Has Stopped Working
I ended up talking to the support line, and it wss a BIOS
problem which had taken out 3 of the 4 USB ports. thanks for your help. A. -----Original Message----- Check your BIOS; some may have particular settings for USB keyboards/mice. Check through Programs/Accessories/SystemTools/SystemInfo to see if you have an IRQ or Port conflict. Remove *all* mouse drivers from DeviceManager (if there's more than one) and reboot.

I have other USB devices attached to the PC which seem to be working fine. -----Original Message----- You could try using the adapter (if you have one) to put it in the PS2 port (?) Do you have other USB devices ? Rick not a big fan of USB (yet) Andrew wrote: Sorry, I should have said that I'd already tried this. The mouse from the ME PC works fine on my XP PC, and the XP PC mouse doesn't work on the ME PC. I've also tried in various USB ports. -----Original Message----- Andrew wrote: The USB Mouse on my Me PC has stopped working. I've tried re-installing, but no joy. Any ideas? Try it on another machine and/or try another mouse on yours to see if it's perhaps a loose wire or something. Rick . . . |
