Most mice (mouses?) don't require a cd to install if you are using Window 7 or later. Just plug the mouse in and let the windows software do its own thing. If you want a gaming mouse with a lot of extra buttons, you may need to obtain a portable CD drive which plugs into a USB outlet. I recommend a CD read/write so you can burn CDs as well. If your touchpad gives you problems with accidental touches, you can disable it in the device manager. go to My Computer then System Properties then Device Manager. enjoy

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No doubt that your laptop has a USB port. If your mouse has a USB cable on it or is wireless with a USB plug in, all you have to do is plug it in and you're ready to go!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.consider to use an external add-on "Mini-Mouse" with optical infra-red pick-up which SHOULD plug into your USB port - granted, this does occupy a USB outlet full-time, but it SHOULD work for you. Also consider that Mini-Mouse is also available in WIRED version which would likely also plug into one of your USB ports.
