Are you sure the right button doesn't do anything? Try pointing at an icon and clicking on it. (Sometimes the buttons get switched.)
If it's not doing anything, then try unplugging the mouse and plugging it back in.
If it's simply swapped, go to control panel. (Use CTRL + ESC to open the start menu, and the arrow keys to navigate. To select something, use ENTER. In control panel, the same keys work, but you may have to press TAB to get down to where the icons are.) In control panel, look under Mouse properties, and select the proper orientation. Tab down to "Apply" and try the mouse. If that doesn't work, tab up and select (use space) the wrong orientation. Hit "Apply" again and try the mouse. The buttons should work backwards. Select the right orientation, and go to apply. When done, use OK to exit the dialogue. (Exact locations of items in Windows vary due to version.)

Old computers are getting to be a lost art. Here at Uncreative Labs, we still enjoy using the old computers. Sometimes we want to see how far a particular system can go, other times we use a stock system to remind ourselves of what we once had.
