Anker Mouse won't scroll- drivers do nothing

[Widdlebwudda]

Hi all,
I recently built a computer and migrated to it. After installing all of the drivers from the CD's, I went to the ianker.com to pick up the drivers for my mouse. The drivers didn't even recognize my mouse. I got an error message in garbled English about making sure it was plugged in, even though it's the only thing in any of my USB ports. Yes, I tried plugging it in different ports. I plugged in a few other mice, and none of the scroll wheels worked on any of those. In the mouse's Properties, it says it's a Microsoft PS/2 mouse (even though it's USB, but that probably doesn't matter too much). Any ideas on what I should do?

When you say you "migrated over" to your new build, did that include migrating over the hard drive with Windows already installed on it?

If yes, that's not helping one little bit. You should have installed Windows on your new build in the correct manner (clean install).

No, I did a clean install of Windows and used Windows Easy Transfer to put my other files on the new box.

After a couple days of suffering and research, I found that the driver CD that came with my motherboard had the USB 3.1 drivers, but no USB 3.0 or 2.0 drivers. They can be found here:
