[QUOTE="tiredretired, post: 1931768, member: 313325"] OK, update. I found a USB mouse and it works. So, I clicked on restore the OS but the mac says I have no internet connection and could not figure out how to log into my wifi with the options provided so I decided to try and restore from time machine. So I hooked up my external hard drive. It read everything fine, and I started restoring. When I went to bed it said 8 hours 30 mins remaining to restore. This morning the computer appears to be frozen with the black screen, Apple logo and a progress bar that appears to be 99%. Almost there. The External is not spinning and the red light is just staying on instead of flickering like it was. I have no boot disc, stupidly but in all fairness to me I am just not smart enough to know better about these things. However I am smart enough to know this computer is not worth paying someone to fix it if it is fixable. It has never been right from day one. Not sure where to go from here. [/QUOTE]
