It is simple, open a old mouse and see, there are two wheels,  one is for horizontal movements and the another one is for vertical movements. when you move the mouse up&dowm the vertical mouse whell will rotate, while rotateing there is a LED and sensor will contact eachother, then the mouse pointer will move up and down. same for horizontal movement.....

what they did with that mouse.. was..\n\nthey were able to recognize what areas of the brain that control movements of the limbs, they had a plate of sensors inserted into a man's skull and he was able to manouver a pointer in the computer with pure thought\n\nit works only by sensing electrical impulses in specific areas of the brain. and it could one day lead to conecting fake limbs to handicapped people

I got my wife a really small Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse.  The USB receiver snaps into the bottom of the mouse when you're done and turns the mouse off to save the batteries.  It was only like $15.

There is probably a driver to control that. I have a gateway, and its probably the settings thats wrong. Try going to the control panel, get to the mouse settings, and clicking on the tab that says DEVICE SETTINGS. then click settings. you should have a window full of mouse and scrolling settings. \n\nYou need to be useing Synaptics for this to work properly.

You plug the mouse into the keyboard, that is why there is only one input.

Well.. I have some answers:\n1. If your mouse is quite old, then it will sometimes have some malfunction. Moving itself up and down, left and right. You click it but it won't let you.\n2. Dirty\n3. Ghosts in your mouse! ;)\n4. You didn't feed em with cheese I think. \n\nMy suggestion: Try it with other computers to test if its really your mouse having problems.

The arrow keys are simply not supported in DOS. DOS is a line-based command structure, not a screen-based one. This is also why your mouse won't work either.

Just go to the control panel, and reinstall your mouse, that should fix your problem..Good Luck..

You probably need to adjust your mouse properties by going to Start > Control Panel and going to Mouse then go to the Buttons tab and there you should be able to adjust them.  My guess is the left click has been changed to open the right click options, if you don't want to manually fuss with changing it, you can just click the "Restore Defaults" button at the bottom and all should be as it was.\n\nSince your left click currently isn't working in order to open Mouse properties just left click on it (which is currently set as right click) and select Open.\n\nOkay, if you have been using System Restore (even if you haven't Windows puts in some restore points for you) you can try restoring your PC to an earlier time before you started having this problem.  If you recently updated the drivers that could very well be the problem (may not be but it could be) so either install the previous version of the driver or try using System Restore.  See if any of that works.

check out who makes your mouse, then go to the manufacturer's website and download the driver for it (many companies have a "default" drivers that offers basic functionality for your mouse.\n\nif your mouse is made by logitech, try this out

As with any other mouse,, go to your control panel ( Click on start then look for "Control Panel" )  go to the mouse Icon and click on it then go thru the options you are wanting to change

On wireless mice and keyboards there is a button on them that tells the adapter that the mice and keyboard are there. press it on each after restarting your computer. Check manuel for more detailed instructions.

hii :)\n\nyou go to your control panel, and in there you should find a program thing to open for your mouse. go into that, and on the 'buttons' tab, check 'single click to open an item'. then youll only have to click once to open things :)
