Don't remove the serial mouse, just disable it. If you remove it, it
will return on the next reboot.

There's also the whole "microsoft serial mouse device" problem. A
typical Windows 7 install (and other versions as well) will have a MS
serial mouse device in the device manager, and when booting, the device
driver goes out and looks for the mouse on COM1 (and maybe other COM
devices) If the wrong characters come back from the device at the wrong
time (e.g. something from the GPS receiver), the mouse driver takes over
the device (and randomly moves the cursor around the screen, sometimes).
You need to explicitly disable the device (and/or remove it) in Device
Manager.
