I recently installed Vista beta 2 on my machine, (eMachines w2646) and no
matter what I try, the mouse driver (p/s2) will not load for me, so I have no
mouse at all when I am using the OS. This is really annoying, and I cant
figure it out. I've loked everywhere for a solution for about 4 hours now
and found nothing. anyone have any suggestions?
 
Interesting, I was working on an eMachines pc tonight with a PS2 mouse and
had the same problem. Can you use the keyboard to get to device manager and
open up the mouse properties? I am wondering if the error is Code 10: cannot
start device
Also, do you have a USB mouse to try?
 
i actually use a MS intellipoint mouse which is a usb. Ive tried it in the
usb, ive tried it in ps2 with an adapter, and Ive used my moms generic mouse
that came with her compaq 5 yrs ago. Ive used the keyboard to get into the
device profiles, and it does indeed say error 10 drivers cant be loaded. Ive
tried to manually load the drivers, and it says that they cant load.
So are we looking at a problem with the emachines mobo not being up to
par with the mouse drivers? What sucks is that every single other driver
works for me, im on a belkin 54g wireless card, ati raedon 9200 video card,
bluetooth phone adapter, all work flawlessly. The only other thing that I
dont have working, but probably only because i dont have a mouse to mess with
it, is my webcam. But thats non-essential as of yet so i dont care.
 
Interesting..I also found another post in one of these newsgroups from
someone else who has an eMachines with the same issue.
If anyone reading this has an eMachines pc with Vista on it, please tell us
if your mouse is working and what type it is (PS2 or USB)
This seems like a very strange issue, I would think that a PS2 port is a PS2
port...but this could be an emerging issue with eMachines.

I'll be trying to gather some information for my customer, and will post
anything I find in here.
 
I'm mouseless and nothing seems to work. I've tried 3 different mice,
including a brand new MS mouse. Vista dosn't recognize the moue. And the
keyboar mouse controls won't move the cursor. I therefor can't click to
accept the MS license terms. I'm dead.

The computer is a 2002 vintage DELL 4500 that had been running XP
professional for over a year.

H A L P !
 
I instaled in a Dell 8200 which has been runnig XP Pro for years, and have
the same mouse problem.
NO MOUSE at all, try other mouser, wireless, wired and nothing work, re
install the drivers, and everything.
It really bother me have no mouse.

Regards,

Anselmo
