If the mouse does not work
A modern computer can not be imagined without a mouse. One of the main reasons for this is the popularity of graphical programming interfaces. This trend was laid back in the days of DOS, when the shells Volcov and Norton Commander, as well as Dos Navigator appeared.
Moreover, the situation in the field of information technology is such that it is almost impossible to find a full-fledged system that provides for work in the text mode. Unless Linux without a graphical shell thanks to its Unix-core can boast of similar. At least for now. It's no wonder that if the mouse does not work, then this is equivalent to a small catastrophe. A small personal Armageddon.
One of the most common causes is the accidental damage to the wire from the device to the computer. To prevent the mouse from pulling the light mouse with a heavy "tail", some manufacturers use a thin and light cord in their products. However, a good intention can lead to a slightly moved table that will transmit the wire and damage the veins.
Sometimes it is enough to pull the cord too tightly, correcting it to break the conductors. For example, it is such a controversial solution used in gaming mouse A4Tech. Thus, if the mouse does not work, then the test should begin with the most obvious - visual inspection of the wire condition. Such a breakdown is very easy to identify and eliminate.
For the previous generations of "rodents" collected on the basis of an infrared sensor, you can see whether the red diode is lit at the bottom of the mouse. If the computer is turned on, the system is loaded, and the LED does not work, then the range of possible causes is narrowed to "electronics - cord - connector (port)". Diagnose the port is also simple - you should connect the mouse to another free connector. And, finally, it is useful to check it on another computer.
Often, users complain that the right mouse button does not work. Almost always the reason for this is the mechanical failure of the microswitch (buttons). It is necessary to disassemble the case, neatly drop out the desired button, buy a new one and solder it on the board. As an option - swap places rarely used under the wheel and faulty.
But if the mouse does not work on the laptop, then do not disassemble the case or go to the service center. The fact is that the built-in touchpad can be turned off / on by pressing a certain key combination (Fn and one of the F-ok). It is necessary to read the instruction or to understand with help icons.
