After fully loading XP the computer will recognize very few mice. A simple 2 button mouse from Walmart works, but any other, including the oem 1 that came with it are useless. Is there a cmos setting that is needed or a different mouse driver? Jim
Mice don't normally need a driver unless you wish to assign special buttons and clicks, assuming your mouse is a PS2 connection, try a USB one instead, that should work.
Yes i understand that but you also asked about drivers of which i gave an answer and an alternative
OK it may be that windows is sticking with the generic mouse driver of the one that works, try this:-
Go to device manager>'+' sign on mice and pointing devices and right click on the one that's listed and delete.
Shut down your pc and remove mouse a replace with another one and re-boot to see if it changes to other mouse driver.
