CHECK THE MOUSE CABLE — Shut down the computer, disconnect the mouse

If you are using a mouse extension cable, disconnect it and connect the
mouse directly to the computer.

At the Windows
desktop, use the touch pad to move the cursor around,
select an icon, and open it.

CHECK THE SYSTEM SETUP PROGRAM SETTINGS — Verify that the system setup
program lists the correct device for the pointing device option (the computer
automatically recognizes a USB mouse without making any setting
adjustments).
