Hello, Noob alert. I have recentley obtains a computer and come across what i think is a strange problem. The computer is roughly 3 years old and is running windows XP. The problem i have is with USB devices. I have three USB mice and when i plug them in to the USB slot, the computer 'detects' them and the speech bubble at the bottom left appears with a brief description of the mouse. The mouse also 'lights up' but there is no motion when you move the mouse! I have tried changing things in BIOS a little but still no luck. There is something about mouse power and keyboard power. They were both disabled and i was unable to enable the keyboard power. When i enabled the mouse power it still didn't change anything. Keyboards also don't work via the USB ports. I bought a PCI USB card today and the problem is identical. Could someone help me please. I'm sure you're all aware of how frustrating these niggling problems can be. http://www.webuser.co.uk/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif My motherboard is a Gigabyte model: 7VM400AM-RZ. Please don't hesitate to ask further questions. Just to add, i quickly searched this forum for a similar problem and tried something that some expert recommended. I tried the remove the policies but i got an error message from XP saying..."You can only import binary registery files within registery editer." Please Help. :(
