Help with Mouse

[Charles]

Dear Help!
I just reformatted my HD because of Problems, and my
Mouse started acting up about a week before I
reformatted. I completed this work is a Computer Store
with the assistance of a Tech., and it worked perfect
when I finished my Mouse worked good also.

When I got home and turned it on, my Mouse immediately
went Crazy, all over the screen same as before. I don't
know what to look for since it worked at the Shop but not
at home. You can not control it when you want to point to
a certain line or name.

I honestly don't know what to do, and I really need some
advice and help.

I want to Thank You First, if you can help me, as it will
be Greatly Appreciated.

Thank You,
Charles

It may be your video card is not properly seated in the motherboard
slot. After turning your PC off and disconnecting the power cord to
it, open your case, remove the video card, then reinsert it, making
sure it is firmly seated in the slot. If this trick does not work,
chances are the video card is defective and should be replaced.
