An old school wired mouse should work just fine.

My guess is you had some update and lost your wireless mouse driver. The basic preinstalled mouse drivers should still be ok.

Is it a USB mouse? Do you have any other USB ports to use?

Try restarting the computer with the wired mouse connected, preferably on a different port if available.

Isn't that little square below the spacebar (slightly to the left) a trackpad? Maybe in control panels, enable it? (Which may be tough without a mouse...

I have a touch screen so that's how I'm accessing settings and stuff. But that track pad is useless right now because I have no mouse cursor. Does that make sense?

Can you get into settings and try to "enable" the trackpad? Seems that would be an option.

My keyboard has a trackpad enable/disable hotkey by pressing Function (Fn) + F5. Maybe yours has similar.

It's not installing the drivers for your wired mouse. That's weird. With window open, unplug the mouse, try a different port, see if it makes a difference.
