Answer 1

if you have a keyboard with arrows for direction then you prolly can next time you need to clean the mouse use alchol and a q-tip to clean it you prolly will need to buy a new mouse

Answer 2

you can use the keyboard to navigate windows using alt and tab commands but you cannot move the mouse cursor with the keyboard . you can buy a mouse for 10 bucks DO IT.

Answer 3

You can't use the keyboard to work the mouse but you can use keyboard shortcuts to navigate the screen. Alt is good for selecting menus (and deselecting them) and tab is useful for moving across the screen.

Answer 4

Control key plus arrows

Answer 5

You have to have a mouse. I suggest this one, as laser mice are generally around $50 (or more) while this one is only $7 after rebate.
