I don't  think it's USB.  But all looks well in Device Mgr.
Looking at the  mouse drivers in DM there are four entries. 
three ending in .VXD and one  .DRV.  Is that normal?


 
Hi:
 
There is a possibility that you have Mouse driver problems.
 
The reason I say that is, you may using two sets of drivers.   One
supplied by Microsoft when you are in safe mode and OEM drivers
when in full mode.  In  safe mode windows eliminates all  the
un-necessary drivers, hence defaulting to Microsoft drivers.  
 
The way to find out is to boot in safe mode and go to device manager
then mouse then drivers to check who supplies the drivers.  After  that
go to full mode and do the same.  If you then see  OEM mouse  drivers 
showing it might prove that the OEM drivers are corrupt.  Device
manager will tell you who supplies the drivers.
 
The best way to deal with driver problems is to un-install them and  then
re-boot.   Windows will reboot and will automatically install  Microsoft
mouse drivers.  Then you can re-install the OEM drivers which  will
then override the Microsoft drivers.  
 
If the PC works ok on the reboot with Microsoft drivers but continues 
to fail with OEM drivers you can go online and download new drivers.
 
On my new PC I am running XP home supplied by the OEM  and
I installed XP Pro aftermarket version.  In the OEM version   it defaults
to OEM drivers and the aftermarket version defaults to Microsoft
drivers.  I still have not installed the OEM version in the  aftermarket XP
to add the "bells and whistles.  Hope this helps
 
 
Emile
