The mouse or pointing device does not work

Symptom: The mouse or pointing device does not work.

mouse, serial, or USB connector. Some keyboards have integrated USB connectors that can be used
for a USB mouse or pointing device.

• Verify that the device drivers for the mouse or pointing device are installed correctly.

• If you are using a USB keyboard or mouse, verify that the USB connectors are enabled in the BIOS

settings. See “Enabling or disabling a device” on page 17.

instructions.
