Mouse stuck on startup

**mobo_king** · 13-02-2009

Hello everyone,
After an update for the mouse (MX518) to the computer and plant redemarage it did not work. I tried without success on all ports USB! But it works on another computer. So it is not in question. I tried to repair but the computer asks me a file not found. Are there any solution to follow ?
Thank you for answering me

you can use the computer without a mouse for at least make backups on an external drive or network. XP has native support for USB mice, but try using a PS2 if you can. You have to start the PC with the PS2 mouse plugged in or it will not work.

If it doesn't, as it's a fresh install, it's probably a fault in the setup (either user or software caused), and I think it's time to waste another hour or so of your life re-installing

Try a different mouse, that will answer your question (about whether it's broken or not). see if there is no errors in the device manager. unintsall mouse drivers and see if the system redetects them. also Boot to safe mode and see if the mouse acts ok. If it does something else is interfering with your mouse (software or hardware).
