Mouse

What do I need to do to install a new mouse? Once
installed I get a message stating it cannot locate mouse.

What type of mouse, PS/2 port or USB?

If you or someone else was playing around with the
settings in the BIOS, the PS/2 mouse port might also have
been disabled. It might have been disabled to free an IRQ
line.

How is the entry for the mouse looking in the Device
Manager?
