I'm sure you've already done this, but check that the cables are set in well and turn your computer off and restart

What OS are you running. Is it a laptop, and the pad still works?

Ok. Well, unusual problem. Try depriving your machine of all power - don't just reboot, unplug the thing for 30 minutes or so.

Helpful links, Lurker! Bud's problem isn't with the mice.
Somehow his little girl managed to lock up his operating system, and the mouse driver issues are just the most obvious symptom since he can't navigate. Unplug the thaang..
