why isnt my usb mouse working?

[eshtog]

I have an Epox 8k7a and I go to the bios and enable the USB mouse option I plug in the mouse into the usb, and when I boot to windows and it tells me no ps/2 mouse found and I can move around my mouse at all.

well for one you need to hit the ok button and if the mouse is in there correctly it will detect it and install the human interface controller

What operating System? Does USB work at all (ie. do you have a camera, or something else to test the USB)?

Windows xp, yes I now it works because I hooked up my camera and it worked

plus the usb mouse in AFTER windows has booted, and see if it detects it. also, look in device manager and see if it IS listed there
