I think I had a similar case, try pushing the windows icon button in the top right corner of your keyboard(thats where it is on my keyboard)then use your arrow keys to scroll up to control panel, select mouse by using arrow keys and then use the tab and arrow keys to open the mouse keypad pagetab and push enable and enter key to turn it on, I hope I got all that right, if not you should get the gist of it hope this helps

try this, go into the same mouse window from the control panel and go to the hardware tab and either try to update driver or use the trouble shoot button
