has a mouse ever worked on your desktop?

yes i have never had any trouble before with any mouse i used

Reply to jdh43

did the new mouse come with drivers, so that you had to install the drivers to get the new mouse to work? or was the new mouse just simple plug into the usb port?

Reply to daviduk109

no none of the mice had drivers

If it's not wireless, then plug that SOB in!

it is wireless, with a usb stick

Try plugging the usb stick into a different usb port. Also, replace the batteries in the mouse and make sure they are installed properly.

Additionally, some wireless usb mice require you to have to "connect" with the usb stick via a little button on the bottom of the mouse.

Lastly verify the power to the mouse is "on", you probably have button for that on the bottom of your mouse as well.

Turn it on.If that don`t help go to bios and in integrated peripherals select usb.
