Hello
The mouse that came with my new machine is even worse than the one I allready have, so I swapped them. Now my problem is that the original mouse is still in the device manager, but I cant find out how to change it to my old mouse. I does have an option to diasble this device but surely if I do that I will be stuck :oops:
please help, look forward to a reply Happy
Regards

click to driver update. If it wont help, remove driver and restart OS

Remove every entry under "Mice and other pointing devices" in device manager. Get your old mouse, plug in and Vista should recognise it. Depending on how technical the mouse is, you may have to install the driver for the mouse before plugging it into the USB. If you've lost the cd, go to the mouse manufacturers website and get the driver from there.

Look your keyboard for fast keys for restart or check in your OS for the Quick tabs (Keys) for restarting the OS Winking
