Hi there, I'm new and I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this topic but I am in desperate need of help.

As thet title says my mouse won't connect to my computer, when I go into my mouse settings and look for hardware nothing is shown, I thought it was because my mouse was broken, but it gave me the same results when I USED another mouse.

I'm not administrator on this computer, my father is and he won't help much, is there any way to fix this problem WITHOUT logging in as administartor? Even though I explained him what happened he didn't think it would help anyways.

Also, is there an alternatice program that can move your mouse with the keyboard? The one I am already using is horrible because the cursor moves slow and then rapidly fast BEYOND control, ain't there any way to make it move at steady speed? As in, it will allways move in same speed but also a bit fast?

Someone please help, this is driving me insane! I suspect this is a USB mouse. Please clarify what we are working on. Do you have a real PS/2 mouse?I think he has a PS/2 mouse and the port is broken. He may need to get a USB mouse to fix the problem.  No need to think about it. Perhaps he will post back.Please do keep in mind I am a total n00b and don't know what a PS/2 Mouse is, [email protected];;

I dunno if it's my USB port tho, the mouse just clogged off all of a sudden while I put in some headphones.Is it a rectangular (USB) mouse CONNECTOR or a round and probably green (PS/2) plug?

Do you have two round connectors on the computer? Keyboards can also be PS/2 or USB items. We need to be sure what you are TALKING about.

Have you rebooted the machine with the mouse plugged in since this started? How long has this been a problem?My own mouse is USB, but I have an adapter that can change it to the round kind, the extra mouse I got is round kind already, I'm not sure if I restarted with any of them plugged in, I'll try now.

Oh and it has been a problem since yesterday.Be sure and have the round one plugged in when you restart.
