Contact a computer store and ask them if they would repair it for you. Another option is to claim warranty support.

After you replace the batteries on a wireless mouse you must then sync it to its base. To do this, you must first push the button on the top of the base. The light will then start to blink. Then, you must push the button labeled "connect" on the bottom of the mouse.

Hello there, I am the Expert that will be helping you today. My name is damnor01.

Welcome to Fixya.

The mouse uses two AA 1.5Volt batteries, ensure that they are installed in the correct orientation. Positive and negative polarity, on each. New strong batteries are required for this application.
A red light shoud elumanate from the bottom of the mouse when batteries are installed.

Now connect the USB cable from the receiver to the USB port on your computer, you may need to try different ones.
Once this stage has been completed you can install the drivers for your Microsoft mouse, they can be found on the CD disk that came with your Mouse.
The drivers may need to be installed using a wired mouse.

Beneath the mouse there is a button, press it.
On the receiver there is a button press it.

The receiver will now find the mouse and connect.

Thanking you kindly
