my mouse quit working and was wondering if there was any other way to hook up the mouse besides the port in is to go in.

Just buy a new one, they are so cheap. I always try to keep a few spares for my 5 desktops.

Depends, some mouses where you can plug in into the USB port OR the ps/2 port., but if it only has one, then buy a new one, get a laser mouse

reboot your computer, just shut it down and start it back up. That works most of the time. However, if it is an old computer, it may be a very bad sign to let you know the drive is getting ready to say bye bye.
but i think rebooting it will do the trick for ya.

Try blowing into the cord of the mouse or try restarting your computer
If those don't work I think you'll have to buy a new mouse

Check the connection first. Make sure it is secure and then re start your workstation. If it still doesn't work, get another, they aren't expensive
