Hey, my friend got a new mouse, and hes having problem getting it to install. its a logitech wheel mouse optical. we have tried installing a few different driver versions, and the windows drivers just arent there which is the problem i think...
he said that a long time ago he deleted his INF files to gain space, as was recomended in a guide online somewhere. so i checkedc the folder and sure enough theres only 15 files in the folder.
can anyone tell me how we can restore those files?
this is what ive tried:
sfc /scannow
installing from safemode
last known good configuration
updating chipset drivers
and my latest attempt was to copy the files from the xp cd, theyy were named .in_ instead of .inf, so i had to rename them, which was simple 'cause i used command to do every file at once. then i restarted but it still cant find any drivers.
in device manager it shows USB mouse as an unknown device, i try to update drivers and it says windows cannot find any drivers for this device.
it connects through USB, and his operating system is windows xp pro. his usb ports are onboard, and the board is the asus a7n8x.
help would be appreciated.
