USB mouse help please!

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

I have a Compaq Presario R3000 Notebook computer. I
recently bought a Belkin Combo USB and PS/2 with scroll
wheel mouse that should supposedly work with my USB port.
However, when I installed the software and plugged the
device in, it says that it is an unknown device and does
not have a driver listed. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

Did you actually install the software first and then plug
the mouse in?

Go into the device manager and delete the hardware in
question. The install the software and then the hardware
again.
