What does in mean 'enable interrupts'?

In Event Viewer two error messages reads as follows:

Could not enable interrupts on connected port device \Device\PointerClass0.

Any idea what this means?

It probably means you have a bad mouse (or other "pointer") or mouse
driver. Check Device Manager to see if there's more info there. Use
Start|Help if you don't know where Device Manager is.
 
But my mouse is about the only thing that is working really well. Nothing
in Device Manager to indicate a problem nor am I getting any freezes. It's
plugged into my USB port. Perhaps this is one error message which I can
afford to ignore. Thanks for explaining it to me, Dan.
 
The date/time the error was logged will play a part in determining what
to worry about also. For example, did this happen when you changed mice
6 weeks ago or did it happen during the last boot.
 
It happens each time I boot. Yet the mouse works great. It's a PCLine
attached to the USB port.

Since my mouse seems to be working properly and I'm not getting the freezes
normally caused by a buggy mouse, I think I'll leave things as they are and
just ignore the error message.
I think this Event Log is turning me into a PC hypochondriac.
