IF YOU CONNECTED THE MOUSE AFTER TURNING ON THE COMPUTER,
REMOVE THE POWER CABLE, AND THEN RECONNECT THE MOUSE
CABLE — If the mouse is connected after the power is turned on, the mouse
appears to be nonfunctional. To make the mouse function properly:
1 While your computer is on, remove the power cable from the back of the
computer.
2 Connect the mouse to the computer.
3 Reconnect the power cable.
4 Turn on your computer.
Pressing the power button does not clear the computer’s settings and does not
restore mouse functionality.
CHECK THE MOUSE CABLE
• Check the cable connector for bent or broken pins and for damaged or frayed
cables. Straighten bent pins.
• Ensure that the cable is firmly connected to the computer.
TEST THE MOUSE — Connect a mouse that works properly to the computer,
and try using the mouse. If the new mouse works, the original mouse was faulty.

Hardware.
2 Click Mouse.
3 Try adjusting the settings.
