Step 1:
Disconnect and reconnect the USB device. Look for any notification while plugging in. If there is no respond it is your time to continue your reading. Make sure your device is functioning properly. If you can, try it on another system. Why bother trying that? Even if a mouse is not functioning, the laser at the bottom may be lit.
