I responded to this same problem in your previous thread but you never answered any of my questions or said if you tried any of the things I suggested. :(

That part of about using Dell mice?  What a bunch of bull I had a Dell 8500 inspirion laptop and I had a Logitech USB mouse on it.  My friend has 2 Dells a Dimension 3000 which is getting reycled back to Dell and a Dimension E521 which I'm currently on.  She has a wireless keyboard and mouse combo by Micro innovations all you do is install the software and it works fine and dnady now you need to have a generic keyboard and mouse hooked up if you're gonna restare the thing using the Dell PC restore but other than that a mouse is a mouse and a keyboard is a keyboard.

you should be able to use any mouse you want. we have 2 dell computers using the corded logitech optical  kind in the ps2 ports and havent had any problem. the dell mouse that came with the one we bought brand new sure didnt last long.
