Okay...

I bought a new motherboard off the internet. Today I got some RAM...

I put the ram in and it booted, then it went on to install all the hardware on the motherboard but then it needed a mouse input. I needed to click on continue anyway...

However, it had not got round to installing the USB ports and/or the mouse, so i cannot click. I am stuck in a loop, with no way out! :(

Anyone got a solution and or tips? All replys will be thanked! Thanks in advance

Have you the Operating System installed? USB drivers are in windows. Just connect mouse if it's usb. If it is PS2 you will need to switch off,connect mouse and reboot.

It's USB, I connect it but i cant move it because it hasn't installed the usb port(s) yet.

It's windows XP SP2 and was working before it was replaced. Trying to find XP disk at the moment.

With windows running use the arrows on your keyboard instead of the mouse.

Nope =\ the KB doesn't work either, yet it does in the BIOS. I'm thinking of wiping XP and starting again, It was a bit colgged up before It broke :( (It's a PS/2 KB)

Great!!! The freaking XP CD is corrupt. I bloody hate this PC, it's been nothing but a pain for 5 years!
