Hello, I have a Mikomi 3 Button Mini Optical Mouse AM-9170U. The problem I'm having is that the red light underneath the mouse is on but the mouse cursor won't move. When I plug it in nothing happens, only the lights underneath light up.

It was working fine untill it suddenly stopped working. Please help me with this.

Thanks

On an optical mouse, two thngs happen. The light shines out and a sensor reads the reflection almost like a camera image. Try some other surfaces, particularly ones which are not shiny. If that doesn't help, install the mouse on some other computer. If that works, reinstall your drivers on the first computer, removing the old ones as best you can (Control Panel...Device Manager...etc.). If it doesn't work on the other computer, check for any switches on the mouse (that would be uncommon) and for warranty coverage. Otherwise, the light sensor is probably broken and there is little you can do.
