  • USB Mouse doesn't work?

    For some unknown reason, my usb mouse stopped working. I tried rebooting, no luck, tried add new hardware wizard, no luck, new hardware wiz doesn't even recognize the mouse is plugged in. I have a usb2 port plugged into the cpu which I plug the mouse into. I plugged the usb2 port into a different port on the back of the cpu. New hardware recognized other stuff plugged into the usb2 but not the mouse!!! I had an old mouse and bought this new one because I thought the problem was the mouse but the new one does the same thing as the old one. Hardware manager says the driver for the keyboard works and there are no probs with the keyboard, just the mouse. New mouse is optical, lit up and seems to be okay but cpu doesn't recognize it. Windows XP system, 32 bit. Please help!!!!!!!

  • Do you believe nothing matters to you...?

    if it doesn't affect you directly? Many people in the U.S before WW2 were isolationist and called the war against Nazi Germany the 'European Conflict'. It seems many people today have the same response to fascism which today wears different clothing but is still fascism. Do you realize that, if you consider yourself atheist, your right to be an atheist will be taken away under Sharia law. Just because you aren't religious does not mean Islamofascism will not affect you. Do you realize this? Do you enjoy freedom to choose your religion, if any, or for women, what clothing you will wear? Do you enjoy being treated as a person and not a piece of furniture? Do you enjoy and appreciate your freedom?

  • Do you agree we are just lumps of flesh?

    Some people believe there is no God. If there is no God, our bodies are not sacred. Did you know the government of the Netherlands has recently instituted euthanasia for babies born with disabilities/deformities? Not pre-birth abortion but killing them after birth. They justify this by saying their quality of life will be so poor their life won't be worth living.

    Do you agree with the killing of newborns with disabilities? If you do, what's the difference between disabled newborns and older children/adults with disabilities except age?

    If you agree with the killing of people with disabilities, which disabilities determine a person should be killed? Is dyslexia a disability?

    What about IQ? Should people of lower IQ be killed? Where's the line drawn? 100? 80? Maybe 120?

    What about eye colour or ethnic background? After all, don't we want the best to live? Who says what's best?

  • I don't know what's wrong with my Lexmark x1270 printer. I can't seem to install it?

    I followed all the instructions on the big sheet that comes with it, uninstalled and reinstalled it, rebooted the hard drive, bought a new USB cable in case the problem rested with the old one, and when I try to print with it, I keep getting an error message saying basically the computer and printer can't talk to each other, to disconnect and reconnect the USB cable. Did that, no dice. I plugged the printer directly into a wall socket instead of a power bar, no difference. I do know there is a problem in device manager, where there is no USB printing support. I tried updating the driver for that and Windows won't update it, it says it's the best one available. I'm using XP Home and Lexmark is supported by XP.

    I tried Lexmark tech support, they couldn't help me.

    This is driving me crazy. How do I get USB printing support?

  • I Can't Defrag XP, keeps asking me to run Scandisk?

    I start defrag utility, then about 3/4 of the way it stops and says there's something wrong that scandisk can fix, I run scandisk and defrag but get the same thing again.

    Please don't say 'run scandisk in thorough mode' because that's not an option in XP

    Also my Human Interface Device is disabled in Device Manager. How do I enable it so my webcam will work?

  • Why does the Press bend over backwards to make good look bad?

    The following news story is essentially about a mother and her father rescuing her children from her estranged husband who kidnapped them and took them to Lebanon without her permission, but from the way it's written, you wouldn't realize it at first:

  • Isn't Canada a free, democratic country?

    I thought a person had the right to their opinions and express them as long as they didn't constitute hatred, etc. The politically correct people are getting really out of hand. See the link....
