Mouse will not move

My sister's computers mouse has frozen in the middle of the screen for some reason.
I dunno what she's done to it from what I can see she hasn't done anything.
I tried my mouse but that does the same thing just stay in the center of the screen.
The current mouse is in the ps/2 slot so I tried a male USB to Female PS/2 to convert it to see if the PS/2 slot is faulty but it still don't work.

Any ideas?

gto into device manager and see if the mouse is showing up with a ? or a ! next to it.
if so right click>uninstall>restart and see if that helps.

Windows key + Pause/Break key.

Tab and arrow keys to move around.

Sounds like you had a power surge of some type. Did you by chance unplug or plug a PS/2 mouse while the computer was powered on?
