Well Its 2 easy to connect external mouse to Laptop, in market there are variety of laptop mouse available which is designed for Laptop only. so u can have any good branded USB mouse & put in USB port, then it will starts automaticall if you have window xp or windows 2000 or windows vista. Also there is range of wireless bluetooth mouse you can use that also.

Hi, Dbhattji... don't forget to set the touch-pad unactivated! It'll make you more confortable without worry about touching the pad when you're typing or something. Enjoy your new mouse! ^_^

of course you could.. just buy a mouse with a usb attachment..not the round one..and you're ready to go..you can plug it in on to where you plug your flash drive..also with the printer.. i hope this helps..

hello dbhattji, yes you can do it.even i do it at times when i get irritated with the touchpad.i feel more comfortable with my mouse.get a mouse with a usb attachment.just plug into your laptop and you are ready to go.a wireless mouse would be better and if you have a bluetooth enabled laptop then you can go for wireless bluetooth mouse.if not then you can use a usb bluetooth adapter also.it works best and is very much compatible.

Absolutely. You can use a USB mouse with your laptop. It's the most common way. I'm using my laptop now and my mouse is a laser mouse with the USB plug. You just need to plug it in your laptop and it can work right away.

Yes you can attatch a mouse to your laptop. I have a laptop and I remember the first time I got it. I was really not liking the whole touchpad for a mouse, but it grew on me and I really love it now. I would never use a mouse again. But, if you have to have one, you can. Most laptops have a place in the back where you can hook one up. Just like you would on a computer.
