Fresh Reinstall - Mouse Not Working
Jan 7, 2009
I just reinstalled XP on one of my computers because it had some problem. It is a dell E1505 laptop. Got windows loaded and started doing the drivers.I got to the chipset driver they suggested and after it was done installing, my mouse no longer worked and I had to use the touchpad. Looking at the Device Manager, it looks like some of my usb hubs are not active. I tried plugging the mouse into all the ports and nothing happened. It is just a dell standard mouse, so it shouldnt need any additional driver support.

Because of massive system porblems I have had t reinstall XP Pr with SP2. Before reinstalling XP I formmated the hard drives t give me a blank canvas to work. The reinstall worked fine but I cannot reinstall my Virgin Media Bradband service. Before the reinstall the bradband service was wrking fine..When I originall took out the bradband service it was through NTL. My cable modem states 'NTL' and the broadband disk has NTL' on it and I registered it tthough NTL. Now Virgin Media has bought up NTl annd I don't know if there is a compatibility prblem. Des somebdy else know?

Ive been using WindowBlinds but when i booted this morning it wont start with windows and my theme changed to windows classic. i thought it was a problem with WindowBlinds but the problem still remained after a fresh reinstall. Even a system restore wont fix it. I have Tune-Up Utilities but Tune-up styler that cannot apply themes as well!started when i installed CounterSpy last night.

computer started to run very poorly: lagging, freezing up, windows end task etc finnaly one day it would not go into desktop. would only give option to start in normal mode or safe mode. so i tried starting in both but would only restart into the same option screen.I decided it was best to format harddrive and reload windows. insert windows disk and proceeded to format partition and reinstall windows. it formats all that way to 90 % and then states cannot format partition further, harddrive problems and to trouble shoot manual. tried quick format and repair but still nothing.tried restarting without reinstall disk. says cant access OS of course!

I have a problem with explorer had it before and after reformating deep and fresh reinstall cant load java or activex at all and I get no yellow warning bars.Java would not install auto or manual from the java site.So I went sun's site and got it to install from the download but still nothing works.Wont a virus scan find a boot sector bug?It affects firefox to so I cant go to support site because they have errors where contact buttons should be.winxp pro updated from original to 1 then sp2.Its oem so it $59 at microsoft for support.My software skills are sadly lacking or I would look in the regestry but I would'nt know what to look for.Im a hardware guy not software.By the way it runs games just fine and no problems with any other software.

I recently got my computer back from the computer fixing guy (because I killed the master boot record and I had no idea how to fix it) and it's a lot slower than it was before. It was a clean install of XP, and the only difference I can see is that the computer magician installed PC-cillin on it. It's not any specific program that's slow now either. Firefox, IE, Unreal Tournament, Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Civilization 4, all the stuff I usually use is equally slow

My computer totally crashed and I had to go in and format the MBR and load the Ntldr file as well. But now when I try to do a fresh install and boot from the XP cd i get to where I press the F8 to agree and the message I get is as follows:
"The setup can not find a previous version of windows installed on your computer. To continue, setup needs to verify that you qualify to use this upgrade product. Please insert your windows NT3.51,windows NT4.0, windows 2000 CD into the specified drive and click enter to continue".I know this sounds like I am using a Upgrade CD to Windows XP but the CD i am using IS a full OEM Version of Windows XP and NOT a upgrade version

I had WINDVD Creator installed on my system , XP Pro SP2. I had a problem( not related) so I did a fresh install. When I tried to put WIN DVD back in, I get the message, "This is not a Qualified machine". I went to their website and downloaded a trial version and it worked fine. I deleted the trial version and tried My Software install disc and got the same, This is not a qualified machine notice

first my left click stop working so i figured it was a hardware problem, i switched the mouse settings so that i could use the right click instead however i'm still having problems where it won't click...i notice that this most happens in firefox so i figured the issue is not really hardware....

I have a machine which has suddenly stopped responding to any mouse connected to the usb port. The ports appear to still be working as i can access a usb key etc from them. As soon as i plug a mouse in i get an error saying the device may not be installed properly. When checking in the control pannel all devices appear to be fine but the port the mouse is in shows as 'unknown device' it seems to have suddenly lost the ability to recognise when something is a mouse

A buddy of mine is having problems with his PC. He said when he turns it on it seems to boot up fine (lights on case work) but his screen, mouse and keyboard are not working. Now Im assuming that all those burning out at the same time is next to impossible. I think it might have to do with the PC itself. I have yet to try a different screen and such just to make sure. Also if infact trying another screen fails i obviously will not be able to look in his bios, which leaves me kinda stumped.

I was recently uninstalling unwanted programs from my computer when i accidently uninstalled my nvidia driver for my graphics card. It told me to restart. Now when i get to the log in screen the mouse and keyboard won't work so i cant log into windows or do ANYTHING!!! I have tried plugging in a different mouse and keyboard, the lights on the keyboards flash to indicate they are connected, the mouse lights up, except they will not work!The keyboard works when i use BIOS and the USB thing is set to enabled. It seems my only option is to reinstall windows from the disc but i have valuable files on my hard drive.

I am having issues with my keyboard and mouse(hence the title). My keyboard works fine while in the bios and while booting, but once the Windows Bar stops going from side to side and I start to see my desktop load, the screen is in 640x480 resolution or something (like safe mode) and I can't use my keyboard or my mouse, even though the lights on both are lit(so they have power). Earlier, I was having problems with my hal.dll (long story, but I ended replacing it from my MCE OEM CD in the recovery console((which I have in my MBR Boot menu)), and now I am here). I think that that might be the contributing issue here, but I have no clue what to do next. The same thing happens when I enter safe mode. I would just boot from my XP DVD and do a repair, but DELL gave me a DVD-ROM OEM disk with my XPS 600 even though the only drive I can boot from is my CD-RW DRIVE as far as I know. I have checked my boot order in my bios. I can boot from USB or Onboard or Removable Hard drives and Cd Drives.

Every mouse Ive tried to get working on a system that I just installed XP on will not work. Note these mice are ps/2 but it isn't the port because I used a Ps/2 to USB converter and that didn't work either? Note Ive rebooted the system every time I tried a new mouse so it isn't the restart needed.

I've just recently purchased a system within a week only to find that my wired optical mouse has stopped working correctly. It sporadically moves from place to place and at times is completely unresponsive. The weird thing is that every once in a while, the power on the mouse completely turns off (no light coming from it). I am certain the USB mouse works as it has been tested in another computer.

so we just installed SP3 for XP. At first the boot was failing, made some hardware changes and all was good seemingly... now the keyboard and mouse no longer work, but they work when the computer just starts up. They just stop working shortly after. I plugged in a USB mouse and that works, so I was thinking it may be a problem with the PS/2 ports.

I need help with an XP desktop setting issue. I had a mouse issue and in the process,I clicked or right clicked on or near the task bar by the clock. Now I've got a colored box on the left quarter of the desktop which has "folder tasks"on top, "other places" in the middle and "details" on the bottom. This doesn't affect using any other program......its just on the desktop taking up space.

I have had problems with my pc that was running on Win XP Pro so I installed WIN XP Home and now I have 2 versions and I am glad for that because the Pro version has all the drivers so I can listen to music, play videos and games but good for nothing else because it said a long time ago that I was not running a Genuine version of Windows (that's why I installed Home) and it won't burn cds and runs super slow not allowing me to do much

running on windows XP SP2 & the mouse would not work so i tried my mouse in the USB port and in the ps/2 port and it still did not work. When i checked in device manager everything looked ok but i could not access the mouse properties in the control panel also when i tried a spyware scan it kept crashing as soon as it found a infection.
So i formatted the hard drive to NTFS and tried reinstalling windows it got halfway though and i got a stop error message (Blue screen of death). IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL STOP: 0x0000000A (0xFFBE0000, 0X00000001, 0X00000000, 0X80825254)

Dell xps 400, pentium2.80 ghz dual core, 1 gig ram, win xp media center op sys. Just bought a new microsoft cordless mouse with usb connection for transmitter. With mouse plugged in my monitor will not power down after the amount of minutes I have set in power options nor will it go to screen saver if I choose a screen saver which I did just to test. So, I turned off screen saver and just chose in the power option panel to turn off monitor after five minutes, chose to hibernate never or suspend never. Will not work with mouse plugged in, but will work if I unplug mouse.
