PS2 Mouse Quit -- How to Troubleshoot
7/18/2020 AM mouse worked fine. System down several hours and activated again 7/18/2020 PM and mouse
NOT recognized, but mouse laser (light) active.
Swapped out this mouse with 2nd PS2 mouse and still does NOT work.
Put on 1st mouse using a PS2 to USB convertor - Mouse WORKS fine.
Only changes to system were:
1) 7/14/2020 -- Windows Update (Windows 10 v 1909). -- Seems odd update would cause issues 4 days later.
2) 7/18/202 -- Defragmented HD.
So my assessment is either:
1) The PS2 Hardware MODO port went out
2) The PS2 Mouse driver got corrupted during Defragmenting.
MOBO = ASUS H97 Plus .

QUESTIONS
------------------
What is best way to test for:
1) hardware PS2 port failure?
2) Reinstall just the PS2 mouse driver under WIndows 10 ?
Thanks
