ok yeah now no mouse or keyboard works at all nothing zip nada...and dell tech support sucked. i went through 6 diff people and finnaly i got told that since i installed winxp and didnt have win me (which came with my sys) she couldnt really help me...nice very nice.

i finnaly figured i will just get a new harddrive and reinstall all the stuff then transfer the files i need off the old one...how does that sound? also gonna buy a new case today cause mine sucks...i really am ticked at dell but i still dont know what the hell is wrong with my comp!!!

btw im on a second comp typing this..

OK, Don't know how a new HD would fix your mouse..... But are you using USB or PS/2?

Also open your case up and make sure you didn't knock something off or unplug something on the inside......

the wireless reciever is using the purple ps/2 port and 1 usb port...i looked a couple times to see if i knocked something off i am going to go look again in a couple of minutes
