[Tiger Jackson]

I have a this dell dimension 3000 computer, i can't get the rear mouse port to work. The mouse laser lights up but won't move the cursor. I have to use up one of the front USB ports which i don't want to do.

Hello Tiger Jackson,

I am from Dell Social Media and Community.

If the front USB port work and the one at the back is not working at the same time, it means that the USB port at the back has a hardware issue.
However you can click on the link below and download the chipset drivers and verify if the back USB port work.

(Select the operating system as per from the list)

If the issue persists, as myke has mentioned, you can connect a USB hub to one of the other USB port that is working at the back and connect multiple devices.

If this has not helped you or if you need any further assistance, feel free to message me on Twitter(@NiranjanatDell). I will be happy to assist.
