USB mouse and keyboard problems

Pants · 31 Mar 2007 at 20:17

Hi,

I have bought an:

MS Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 Mouse
MS Comfort Curve 2000 Keyboard

Now I would have expected this to be plug and play but no! Bot are not responding even after installing the latest software. I have even forced the devices to use the correct driver but the "device cant start" Code 10.

I'm running Vista X64 and my motherboard is an Asus K8N SLI SE (Nforce 4) if that helps...

Any ideas?

Cheers.

Both the keyborad and mouse worked fine in my brothers xp setup, witout installing any software or rebooting.

However joysticks etc work fine in my USB ports. And I have tried different combinations on usb ports.

I will follow the guide above and report back (un install all ubs nodes).

That has fixed the mouse! Cheers.

However the keyboard is still not responding.... Hmm...

When I look at the properties of the keyboard i get:

A driver (service) for this device has been disabled. An alternate driver may be providing this functionality. (Code 32)

Click 'Check for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available.

The keyboard is listed under 'USB controllers' rather than 'Keyboards'
