Can't Move Mouse in Skyrim?

[Jhact]

I started up Skyrim one day, and my mouse wouldn't move at all. When I went to the Steam Overlay it worked, or when I did Alt+Tab, but not in the game. I can't look around and the only way to navigate the menus is by the keyboard. Is there a way to fix this?

Do you have a controller/gamepad connected? If you do, Skyrim will automatically detect that and disable KB+M.

No, I sometimes use a Xbox controller for Dark Souls, but I unplug it after I'm done.

Maybe you should plug it in and see if that still works for control? Then, if that works, you could go to the options and see what controls it's set to use.

Alright, I'll try that and get back to you, thanks!

Update : Plugged in my Xbox wired controller and Skyrim came up with a cursor. Tried moving my mouse and it worked! I quit the game, unplugged the controller, went back, and it still worked! Thanks for the help!
