AMD Overclocker

i have an acer laptop, and i have been using a Targus laptop mouse. it has been working fine, but for some reason it wont work now. vista "has problems" finding the driver. the red optical light is on, and when i hold a button down it does that "duh-dunt" sound meaning i plugged in new hardware, but does nothing. can anyone help me please?

Mine worked fine straight out of the box. If it isn't working on different ports, perhaps you need to get drivers for it somewhere? Either that or something to bypass the touch pad, since it's a laptop. The PC may just be defaulting to the touchpad, and ignoring the USB ports for pointer devices.
