can you install a mouse on a laptop?

Answer 1

Yes. Use an optical mouse if you would like more areas to use the mouse. Optical mice read more surfaces than mice that have a ball and rollers. Either way, your laptop probably has a USB port. if not, it should have a PS2 port. Find out which one you have and go get a mouse.

Answer 2

Yes, most modern laptops will take a mouse. For example if you have a USB port available, you could install a USB mouse. You may also be able to install a PS2 mouse, or even a serial mouse. Just try it.

Answer 3

Absolutely! I use a track ball on my laptop and installing a mouse is just as easy. Just pick out the mouse you want from the store and follow the directions.

Answer 4

Of course!

USB (Universal Serial Bus) Mouses can work on any computer with USB ports.

Just Google search for a USB mouse or go to a local Circuit City, Best Buy, or Comp USA to get one. Make sure it's a USB Mouse though.

Answer 5

The only thing you need is mouse and sometimes drivers (not very often). What you do:
- connect mouse to the computer/laptop
- turn on computer
- install new hardware
- restart computer
it should work after that.

Answer 6

Sure any USB mouse will work. They also make smaller portable ones just for laptops but all USB mice will work.
