Was working a few days ago last time I went into the bios. I'm pretty sure it's being registered, but I can't move the cursor, when I try to move the cursor it just jitters in place, if that makes sense.

Is using your keyboard possible? I guess the mouse isn't plug n play then.

I'm guessing its a driver issue.  no older mice around? 

 

KeyTees suggestion would work too. 

 

Fixing driver issue for BIOS... I'd suggest updating BIOS to latest version if it hasn't already. That usually improves such things.

Hadn't thought it'd be a BIOS driver issue :)

Well, its kinda impossible to be a BIOS driver issue because a BIOS doesn't have any drivers at all.  (not only that BIOS's have never ever in the history of history supported mouse input, you need to have a UEFI to support that, but Ill assume you misspoke)

 

Sometimes its just that the UEFI doesn't support the mouse.  Like someone said before updating the UEFI can often add several mouse profiles to BIOS so it can natively support it.  Also, make sure your mouse doesn't have a built in ROM (a example of a mouse that does is the Logitech G600: http://gaming.logitech.com/en-us/product/g600-mmo-gaming-mouse )because you might have enabled this ROM and have some kind of mouse acceleration that the UEFI of the motherboard doesn't support. 

Please spend as much time writing your question, as you want me to spend responding to it.  Take some time, and explain your issue, please!

I know the two are different, but I do forget it and use the two terms interchangeably. 

 

Cheers :) 

Bleigh!  Ever hear of AC series?
