Have you had your keyboard and mouse not work both of which are wireless. I have tried a USB wired keyboard and mouse and that is not working. Been into BIOS and both are enabled and we are stumped to what it could be. So have any of you wonderful computer internet mylotters got an idea as to what it could be pleeeease.

When did you start having this problem? Can you remember what you were doing at the time just before this started happening? If you are referring to wireless then perhaps you should uninstall and reinstall the drivers that came with the wireless mouse or keyboard, this should hopefully give you a fresh start. Good luck.

I've had to adjust the receptor for my wireless mouse and keyboard, it wasn't optimally positioned. Another time my mouse needed batteries. Other than that, I don't know what to advise you but I hope you get them fixed.

Are these new or old? I presume you've run the installation CD, but maybe you should also check the manufacturer's web site to see if there have been any driver updates recently. It is quite strange that the wired keyboard/mouse you've tried aren't working either, though...I've never experienced that. My current wireless Logitech mouse/keyboard setup has worked great for me for years, but I did once have a Belkin wireless mouse I couldn't get to work no matter what I tried to do. It was old and had been used before, though, so I just assumed it was broken/defective.

I hope you checked the battery of either your mouse or your keyboard. I know that when both of my wireless mouse or keyboard don't work, I check the battery first. So you might wanna try changing the batteries and see what happen.
Good luck. Hope it'll start working soon. I hate those wired keyboards and mouse. I don't know how I lived without my wireless system. I'm glad I have them.
