Yes the keys do work. I can press the windows key to load up the start menu and can even then use the arrows to open other softeare / nagivate. I opened task manager this was and managed to close Powerpoint but there was still no mouse control.
I have tried a numebr of things and it only happens when I run the presentation. As soon as I do that I have no mouse - not even a pointer on the screen.
atmosworld I'm pretty sure your Mouse is supposed to disappear when not in use, and PowerPoint goes into SlideShow mode, for the purposes of uninterrupted presentations. The fact that the Arrow keys function indicate you should also be able to send an Esc command to exit the SlideShow if needed...
