Bought a new mouse for my laptop which worked, I unplugged it for a few days and now it doesn't work. Is there something I have to do to make the laptop realise that there is a mouse plugged in again and to make it work

ok go to Control panel >> System >> Hardware >> Device Manager
when u do that it will show all the Hardare in your computer so choose (mice and other pointing system devices) then delete any PS/2 mouses
then pulg in the mouse and restart windows so it will redefine it alone

You should remove windows XP and install GNU/Linux, you will save a lot of time.

It's optical mouse? If it's did u notice if that the light under it is always shining?
Can u describe the problem? It doesnt' move well? It doesn't move at all? The OS give u any error message? Did u changed something from the bios? It's USB or PS/2? Good luck
