At the moment I'm having to install my keyboard, scanner and mouse
drivers every time I reboot. Luckily the keyboard drivers install
automatically so I can install the mouse drivers manually.

The problem is when I open up Device Manager the keyboard says Unknown
Device and there's two of them (the keyboard still works) Also The
mouse has a yellow exlamation mark and when I open it up it says there
is no driver installed, but the mouse still works too.

Added to this mess after I install the mouse (using the right driver
from a disc) a window pops up and says:

Cannot install this hardware

There was a problem installing this hardaware:

HID compliant compliant mouse

An error occured during the installation of this device

The system cannot find the specified file.


At this window I can only click finnish but when I do it keeps comming
back.

This is really annoying, as you could imagine. Does anyone have any
Ideas as to what could be causing this?

Thanks!!

A bit more info might help more, like OS, type of mouse and keyboard etc.

The problem is that the installation of the drivers isnt succeeding,
and that is why you have to do it every time you boot.

Try uninstalling the drivers for that stuff it complains about in the device
manager and rebooting. That may install the drivers properly then.
Try letting Win use its own drivers to start with, dont load the mouse driver
from the CD.
 
boot to safe mode - remove mouse and keyboard instances from device manager-
reboot to normal
