I have laser mouse – USB port, I haven't use it for 1 week because my mouse doesn't working.

It's really had to use my pc without using the mouse.

I'm not familiar with keyboard shortcuts. I tried to use another mouse, but still not working. I can set my mouse in device manager, because i need to right-click the My computer to do to device manager.

I getting tired of it, I need my pc on my studies. I have to go to the internet shop just to do my home works.

And the bad thing is, it's wasting my money for my internet connection at home.

Please send me the best way to solve my problem guys,

Mouse not working on my USB port

When another mouse also does not work on a given USB port, try another USB port.

If a known working mouse does not work in all your USB ports, then it is quite likely that your USB ports are bad, and you need to replace your motherboard.

You can also try and have your BIOS updated or set to defaults and see if that helps.

Your operating system should have the native drivers capable of handling at least the basic mouse functions. If a USB keyboard works outside of the operating system though (it allows you to go into the BIOS) then most likely the drivers in your operating system for mice or pointing devices is faulty.

Try running a system file checker and have your operating system checked and repaired.
