Troubleshooting the Mouse and Touchpad

My mouse does not work.

If you are using an optional Sony PCGA-UMS1 series USB mouse, verify
that the mouse is plugged into the USB port. See “Connecting a USB
Device”
for more information.

If you are still experiencing problems, use your supplied Driver Recovery
CD to reinstall the mouse drivers. See “Using the Application Recovery
CD(s)”
for more information.
