BUT this does not reflect on the screen when im trying to move the mouse. the mouse does detect when i move it because it turns a brighter red when i move it.

i dont know if it is so much a hardware problem

but i know that somewhere in my laptop the USB settings must be messed up

Can you connect the mouse and then capture the device manager and post it?

OK...do try to put the installation disc in, but be careful not to do anything that would risk losing your data (i.e. reinstalling the OS as opposed to simply fixing it)

It could just be that it needs some files from that disc (Probably the recovery disc if you have no other)

A recovery disc does differ in nature from an install disc, but a recovery disc should have the files you need.

I hate to put the kibosh on this for myself, but I'm completely worn out and sleepy. I'll check back later on this morning. I'm so sorry I can't stick around. Others might pick it up from here, though. But like I said, I'll check back.

uhh it doesnt work. neither does putting the recovery disk in work. so basically. smth in my core driver has gone wrong because even in safe mode it just reboots. after briefly showing a loading screen then a split second blue screen of death then rebooting.

this clues to an uncompatible driver error, or a hardware fault. Now what I recommend is that boot a live operating system from a removable storage or connect the laptop's HDD to another computer, backup the data you want, and reinstall windows. The recovery disc should include vista specific for your laptop with drivers.

wytewidow, the recovery disc you have should have an OS on it, most probably vista; besides, the recovery discs are meant to be easily used such that all you have to do is to boot from the disc and choose to reinstall windows and stand by. But one thing I didn't get it, how is the recovery cd not working?
(NB: make sure if this disc is a CD or DVD, if you can't tell by looking to it, insert it in a dvd rom and check its size)
