    Hi guys,

    Quick question. Why is it that when i plug the wireless mouse that came with my laptop into the usb port on the right (beside the power jack) it doesn't work? Plug into the ports on the left and it's recognised and works fine.

    I've noticed this with other items too. Thot maybe there's a hierarchy with the ports but not sure.

    Can anybody enlighten me? Do I need to do anything?

    Thanks.

    HL
