Shut it down, then restart it pressing F8 before windows loads. Choose Last Known Good Configuration and let er go. If not you might try a system restore to before that happened.

Another thing you could do is look in device manager and check out to make sure no problems with mouse driver. You can remove it, restart computer and should reinstall automatically. If not it's not like your losing your mouse since it already isn't working.
