PS/2 nor USB Mouse not recognized HELP

by matt_cicuttini . Updated 17 years, 11 months ago

Windows Vista Home Basic.

Okay i now have maybe 3-4 mice around me right now. 1 USB optical, 2 PS/2 ball and 1 PS/2 optical….and none work so its not the mouse. I have function of my keyboard and can navigate using arrows and tab but my mouse does not work.

When i go to Control Panel>Device Manager there is simply no mouse…it should be under keyboard but instead it skips to modem.

any ideas? a couple things you should know..

1) this problem occured during a thunderstorm
2) there was a power surge followed by a small power-outage
3) i received a shock through the mouse

please be specific and if you know what the problem is…can you tell me if i can fix it or if i have to take it in to a shop of some sort.

thank you
