I want to buy a optical mouse for my laptop

Here are some trouble shooting steps you can try relatively easily....
If the mouse connects via a USB cable, try connecting it on another USB port while the laptop is on.
If it is an optical mouse, check to see if the LED(s) underneath are lit. Change ports until LED lights.
If you have another computer also with a USB mouse and it is working, try a mouse exchange. If the non-working mouse also does not work on the other computer and the mouse from the other computer works on your Toshiba Satellite laptop, the problem is likely with the non-working mouse.
Finally, If the non-working mouse is a wireless one, its battery may be dead. Try a new battery in it.

just above the intergrated mouse area you will see a small button perhaps 1 cm long and not so easy to notice, press it and Hey Presto the mouse pad will work again, spent hours descovering this myself bloody badly designed machines these are. hope I have helped you.

have you keyboard laptop check by a laptop technician so the problem could be diagnose, or you can purchased a usb keyboard and just hook it in your notebook

If it is cordless, you probably need to replace the batteries. Otherwise, buy a new one, they are not expensive. If you use the mouse a lot, I would suggest getting one connected with a usb cable.

Buy a MAC Book Air

maybe you should buy a new mouse
or you can clean it

My same model Argos mouse was auto-detected as a "USB compliant mouse" and it failed to work. Went into device Manager and manually re-installed driver as a "HID compliant mouse" from local drivers and it works!!

Yrs, Mad-****.

Normal 0 Press the Receiver button (and the lights will start flashing.
Then if the Keyboard isn't working, press the small RESET/CONNECT button on the back of the board to connect the keyboard to the receiver.
Hope this helps. Bud

Your mouse is probably defective/ try another mouse or change the usb port!
