LOL! Ok you got me. What breed is it?

 

[joenailface]

uhhh breed? im running outta ways to describe it here its optical? hahaha

 

[Atomic Rooster]

LOL! Ok I meant the brand and model. I checked out the Sweex site. Never heard of them. But judging form their location, I take it you're somewhere across the pond from me.

 

[joenailface]

aye the model number is sweex m1011

Hmm... With the computer on, try unplugging the mouse, then plug it back in. Maybe it'll help jump start XP to recognise the mouse (USB is hot swappable). Also try a different port.

 

[joenailface]

heh done both...many a time btw incase you think im being an ingrate cause your not 'helping' im not im very grateful like i said in the first post any suggestions are welcome

 

[Atomic Rooster]

No I don't think that silly.

Hmm. I've got another idea. Try going into the Device manager, and remove the offending device. Reboot and the computer should re-detect the device and install it.

 

[joenailface]

well i havnt tried that since i reinstalled windows so ill give it a shot
