I would like a new mouse but sadly, my PC will not let me!
My current mouse is plugged into the mouse PS2 port at the rear of my desktop via a green adapter as it has a USB plug. If I shut down, plug another mouse with a USB plug into the same adapter, and reboot, nothing happens - I cannot move the cursor and there is no indication new hardware has been added.
If I plug the new mouse's USB plug into a USB socket and reboot, the system tray and Windows new hardware/driver wizard opens but I cannot move the cursor to start it!
With the old mouse fitted I have checked what I consider to be the relevant drivers in Device Manager but all are reported as the latest.
Please help, this is driving me crazy.
So much for Plug & Play!
