Hi all
I have an optical mouse that connects to the 6 pin socket of the mobo. It lights up and when i right click the menu also appears. But the arrow pointer on the screen doesnot move on moving the mouse. I rebooted the pc and also tried swapping the keyboard and mouse sockets.yet the problem persisted. could somebody enlighten me on this issue??

Two questions.
First What kind of surface is the mouse on if its a clear surface such as a glass desk the mouse would not work cuz it wouldn't pick anything up.

Are you sure the mouse isn't broken. Try putting the mouse on your hand and moving it.
