Usb mouse stop working windows 7

It is years old at the most. I think I have gathered from my reading that I cannot get into the BIOS settings because the F2 key is not working during startup anyway. Correct me if I am wrong Any and all suggestions are much appreciated! Tuesday, April 2, PM. I would try taking the bios battery out for a couple hours and then putting it back in and see if that does anything. Have you tried a different keyboard?

Wednesday, April 3, PM. I will need blessing from the higher powers before taking off the cover and unplugging the bios battery- so we will see on that one. I have tried several other keyboards that function on other computers in the office.

In each instance, I shut the computer down, switched keyboards then powered back on. Nothing functions still. Hi, Have you tried the system restore to go back to a previous state? Thursday, April 4, AM.
