    it should work right away, u might need to install a driver but that should'nt be necessary, the mouse should be plug and play.

    Try plugging it in then reboot the system.

    You may want to try installing the Software & drivers that come with the mouse before plugging in. Once done, plug in mouse and it should find it correctly. In most cases, USB mice may not need drivers, but I've seen some Logitech that need drivers installed before usage.
