USB Browser Mouse driver error solution
Solution:
When the problem occurs (faulty or non-installation for generic USB mice), leave it as it is and go to 'Control Panel', go to 'System and Maintenance' and then 'Device Manager', you should see an 'unidentified device'. Right click (using your finger pad) and select 'update driver', select ‘search your own computer’, select the tick box for 'compatible devices', select 'HID-compatible mouse' [MS generic] and the device will immediately start to work. Then... When working, connect to the internet and go back to Device Manager (if you want to sort out the USB Browser Mouse problem completely) and under 'Mice and other pointing devices' you will see your newly installed HID compliant mouse, right click again and select 'update driver', this time it will search online and re-install a non-faulty 'USB Browser Mouse' driver? (one which somehow works this time) and it will then work well - or just leave it with the 'HID-compatible mouse' driver (works just as well - 'HID' just being the standard for compliant USB 'Human Interface Devices' / HID).
