Hi,

I installed 9.1 a couple of weeks ago. During the install the mouse would
only move in a horizontal line across the screen, so I completed the
installation using the keyboard. After installation was complete the mouse
behaved eratically moving all over the screen when I tried to control it,
and sometimes clicking when I didn't push any buttons.

I figured the mouse must be buggered so I tried another mouse and went into
the system properties to change the mouse type. It is a Genius NetMouse Pro
Serial Mouse, and I only saw this type of mouse listed as a PS/2 mouse, so I
selected that one. After that not only do I have no mouse control
whatsoever, but my AT keyboard has stopped responding. I get no response at
all at the login screen when I try to type my login ID and password.

How can I fix this?

Jason
