Newbie problem

[Morgoth3@aol.com]

I'm trying to run X windows on my computer.  I installed all of the packages 
required for it, but I still have one basic problem: my mouse won't work when 
I first run XF86Setup.  I have gone through every mouse option in XF86Setup, 
applying them all, and none work. I reinstalled my entire system, and it 
still won't work.  What can I do?  I installed all the device drivers related 
to mice that would work...I have no clue as to where I can go from here.  No 
FAQ or HOWTO has anything on this.  I really need help here. Thanks.
