How is the USB shown in the BIOS? It could be that the USB
support on the mobo and the Windows USB drivers have some
conflict. I don't know about any issues with your
mobo/BIOS, but you might want to check for any update that
addresses such an issue.
Also, you didn't say exactly what USB mouse/driver
combination you're using, but there could be an issue there
too. Does the Genius mouse use some special drivers? Have
you looked for any issues on their website?
