Mouse not starting

I have re installed my intelimouse, problem is, I have to open the exe file to get the thing to run. I have copied a shortcut into the start menu, but still not running at start up/

Any comments from the forum guru's please.

 

Click on the Start button -Run- type in MSCONFIG -click on the Startup button - make sure Pointer is checked. You will have to reboot. Mouse software should function now.

 

Thanks jayt36, I checked and it was ticked. . . . . .

 

I assume the mouse is correctly connected to the port and
Windows does not report a missing mouse on start-up.
I would use Control Panel/System and remove the mouse from your configuration. Then reboot and let Windows find drivers for it . These are available in Windows without using the CD that
you got with the mouse.

Thankyou Merlin.

I followed your instructions and the problem is solved.

What fantastic people we have here, and what a great site.

Many thanks to all who responded.

 

Well, OldSalt, thank you for the kind words.
Glad you can click again.
You are correct - there are some clever and helpful people on this board.
I must also compliment you. Most people would NEVER remove their mouse from their system spec.
