USB Mouse problems Win 98 - Laptop

Hello from across the pond!

My friend took her laptop to be cleaned etc - Clean re-install of Win 98 after putting 
an extra 128mb ram in. All appeared to be working - software etc - connect to net 
ok. When she plugged in her USB Intelli Mouse into the Laptop - the screen just went 
Black and refused to work. It was working perfectly prior to the shop reinstalling 
Win 98 (Clean).

I have mentioned Device Driver - taking any Mouse off from there - Booting into Safe 
mode and doing the same. Can anyone help please? I was wondering whether to delete 
any reference to Mouse in Windows and then rebooting for Windows to rebuild files 
- Is this possible?

I appreciate you should be able to Hot Swap USB devices. I would look at laptop but 
I am hundreds of miles from her and she too shy to come to forum. Thanks
