Mouse on strike

[anninfrance]

Wonder if someone could help me? I have started up my laptop and it loads fine, however the mouse refuses to move! It just rests in the middle of the screen. I have had to close it manually and restart, again loads fine, but the mouse is not working.
Thanks

They can just stop working for no reason, happen to me a few times over the years, but the only way to tell is to try another mouse. Can you borrow one to try. They arn't that expensive either

Hi thanks for that, but before it died the computer made a loud beeping sound and then the cursor dodnt move again!

But the laptop works fine, right??

Have you tried anything else in the (i'm presuming it's a) USB port to make sure the port is working, if it is then it sounds like it's the mouse.

Built in touchpad or mouse?
