I'm using a newsreader, not the web interface.

give.

Is this a laptop or PC? Can you provide full specs of the machine -
including Make and Model, also provide the operating system you're
using.

Is this mouse a "generic" mouse or "branded" the same as the PC make
(e.g.
Acer/Dell/HP) or is it a brand such as Microsoft or Logitech?

Generally a wireless mouse requires a receiver, that plugs into a USB
port.
See the product below on 'www.ht.com.au:' (http://www.ht.com.au:)

'ht.com.au | Logitech V220 Cordless Optical Mouse for Notebooks - Mouse

(http://www.ht.com.au/keyword/Wireles...ack/detail.hts)

You mention a built-in receiver - which I suspect is not actually for
the
mouse, but for the Remote control (for Media Centre/TV) and another
receiver/transmitter that enables your wireless internet (if you use
that).

I had a wireless mouse that came with my PC and then suddenly after a
while it just stopped working and all it does when I put batteries in
it, is flash it's little red light. I press the 'connect' button on
the
bottom of it but to no avail. I don't even think it's installed
correctly or something like that. It's been a while since it stopped
working. I'm not sure if I have the hand manuels for this wireless
mouse
either, I'll have to look if it's required to fix it.

I'm just using a Wheel Mouse Optical USB and PS/2 Compatible in the
place of the 'broken' wireless mouse.

I'll probably just buy a new one but was wondering if there was a way
to make sure it was broken at least? I mean like where specifically
can
I go to find the install directories (if that is something to look
for)?


Or rather, how can I make my PC pick up the signal when I press the
'connect' button on the bottom of the mouse? It appears that a
receiver
is built into the PC since whenever I use the Media Center 'remote'
that
also came with my PC, a light flashes on the PC as if it was the
receiver. Am I making sense lol??

Model No. MR-0601T
Power Rating: 3V 50mA

Great! Thank You Very Much
