windows xp problems
every time i reformat my computer and install my LEGIT windows xp disk it goes through bunch of Microsoft updates then it tell me to install this thing called "Windows genuine advantage notifications" and after installing that my computer won't reboot at all unless i takeout my mouse's usb cable from the back of my pc, so everytime i wanan reboot or start my pc i have to take out mouse usb cable off my computer and put it back on after the desktop screen show up on my monitor, i think that program is causing this problem, anyone know why?

What's the brand/model of your pc?
If it's an older system it may be related to your BIOS Legacy settings. Get into the BIOS; Find "Legacy USB support" with either USB keyboard or USB mouse devices attached. This feature has to be enabled (ON). It will allow usb keyboard/mouse to work outside the Windows. |

Some mice come with their own software drivers/controller software. Windows usually covers that though. Have you checked Logitechs website for drivers for that mouse?
If that does not work then I would go with a mouse with a PS2 connector. Or even try a $2 adapter. http://www.google.com/products/catal...wAg#ps-sellers Ironically, I have an older computer that requires a flash drive to be plugged into a USB port for it to even work.
