I have a wierd computer question. I walked into my computer room and sat down at my chair. When I touched my mouse I got a pretty wild static shock. It hurt like hell. It was enough of a shock to restart my computer. After the reboot I noticed that my mouse wasn't working. After taking apart the mouse I figured it was trashed and then went to walmart to get another one. Turns out that the new mouse doesn't work as well. Could I have toasted my PS/2 port? Can it be fixed, or will I have to switch to a USB mouse?
