Re-Install Mouse Driver

I'm having some intermittent problems with my mouse, and I'd like to
re-install my mouse driver. I've tried updating it, but when it
checks the Windows website it says I already have the latest driver.
So I'd like to uninstall the driver first.

Question: If I uninstall the mouse driver using the mouse control
panel, will I be screwed (i.e. will the mouse stop entirely?)? If the
mouse stops working entirely, how would I do anything?

Thanks.

That's just it. I already have the latest so the new one won't
install.

I'd like to uninstall my current mouse driver before I start. But
won't that disable my mouse? If my mouse stopped working entirely,
how would I proceed? If I uninstall my current mouse driver, will my
mouse stop completely and I'll be f***ed?

What happens if I uninstall my current mouse driver?
