    I have an optical wireless mini mouse that I received as a gift. Problem is I can't get it to work. I plugged in the usb receiver to the computer, put batteries on the mouse, turned the mouse on and... nothing. Under Mouse in the control panel it recognized an HID mouse but that's it.

    Can anyone help me to enable the mouse ????

    When you plugged in the mouse, did a dialog come up to alert you of any hardware? That happened to mine and without any special drivers it was working after about 10 seconds. Maybe you could give us the model name like .:Stan:. said so that we could help you more...
