    Go into device manager. Look under mouse. Select ps2 mouse and click remove.

      Go into device manager. Look under mouse. Select ps2 mouse and click remove.

      It's not in list when USB connected and when both mouses are connected disable is not available for ps2.And I unistalled PS2 also but still the same problem remains.
      There are options in Setup for keyboard and other errors but for mouse it's not available.
      tnx.

      Try enabling USB Mouse and/or keyboard support in the BIOS.

      Or you can:

      1. Remove the PS/2 mouse entry in the device manager whilst the PS/2 mouse is connected.
      2. Shut down system (Not restart)
      3. Connect USB mouse
      4. Allow for detection.

        Again thnx Raptor :)
        I had tried the second way you suggested and got no result.
        And checked for USB enabling and it is enabled.
        I think I need sth to prevent detection of PS2 mouse port as I no longer use this port for mouse connection.
        but system checks it at startup.
        Second, can disabling of IRQ #12 which uses PS2  mouse can help me?
        If can then how can I disable it?
        Thanks.

        Try the following:

        1. Start
        2. Settings
        3. Control Panel
        4. Mouse
        5. Hardware tab
        6. Select the mouse that causes problems
        7. Click properties
        8. Configure it.

        Go to the bios setup screen<del key on boot depending on makel/model> and chose setup defaults......save and exit...

          But on garphical interface mouse doesn't cause any problem. At startu system checks  PS2 mouse port and because there's no mouse connected halts on and asks to press any key for continuing.
          Connecting  USb and PS2 mouses I can use  both of them at the same time and at startup no error message  appears.

            What is reporting the ps2 error, Windows or bios?

                Go in bios & search every screen.
                There will be somewhere in there to stop it.

                  I tried tens of screens, disabled, enabled a lot of familiar things but still got no use.
                  I have to press any key to continue every stratup.
                  Has anyone idea how to disable PS2 mouse port?
                  :'( :'(

                    Could your bios battery be flat thus reverting the bios back to it's default settings?
                    Are you saving your bios changes correctly, sometimes bios can be a bit tricky if you're not used to it.
                    Enter to exit etc.
                    You got any sneaky settings like 'wakeup / ps2 mouse'?

                      No I can make changes in other areas and they affect. eg first boot device, clock etc. when I change configuratin they work as I want.
                      generally I see nothing about PS2 or mouse in my bios settings.
                      I have not yet meet anything that hints  mouse or PS2 configuration.
