"This is a new motherboard,"
Check your BIOS settings that the PS2 port is enabled. I can't tell you any specific menu to look in since this area has no standards.

I have to use the serial mouse. The ps/2 is not recognized when I start up, even though I had installed the software/drivers for the mouse, and had the mouse plugged in. I tried another mouse also.
This is a new motherboard, so I'm hoping it is not the ports. But if it is, can I replace the mouse/keyboard port? I have searched on the internet, and there is no 'how to replace' that I can find.
Any help, suggestions is appreciated.
