Why doesn't my mouse work ?

If i move my mouse while the machine is starting up, then the computer works fine for the rest of the day. But if I don't then the computer doesn't recognise it at all so i have to power down and restart. Is there something in the drivers I need to correct ?

    Is it wireless?

    because if it is then you need to replace the batteries.

    but if its not, buy a new one.

    If u hav got a mouse which has a ball in, it might not be working cos it has lots of dust inside. This happened to me a few weeks ago. Just open it up and clean out the dust. Afterwards, it shud work ok agen. Hope this helps.

    buy a new one but if its wireless it probably needs new batteries.
