Mouse

The mouse does not work

Make sure that the mouse cable is plugged in correctly.

Shut down and restart your computer.

Remove all extension cables and switch boxes.

Try a mouse you know is working to make sure that the
mouse port works.

The mouse works erratically

If the mouse pointer begins moving erratically across the
computer display or becomes difficult to control
precisely, cleaning the mouse will likely improve its
accuracy.

Clean the mouse by wiping the bottom with a clean,
damp cloth. Make sure that the optical sensor is clean
and free of debris.

The mouse pad may have a printed or fabric pattern on
it that interferes with your mouse. Try a different mouse
pad.
