does it need a mouse to set up or operate

Mine came with a mouse. I haven't set it up because I thought it was a DVR recorder not a surveillance machine.

You can connect a USB mouse to the USB port. It will be recognized and a cursor will appear.

Technically NO. But I used one, since the 'click' is bit harder to use (have to press it hard). Logitech small mouse is wonderful. I use 2 monitor (total 3 including the laptop display) so, wireless keyboard and mouse is handy. But when I use it portable, I can live with the touchpad only....

This product does not come with a mouse. It will have to be purchased separately. Hope this helps!

No. Is more like a mouse and keyboard combo. But any way mine bricked a mont ago, less than nine months of use.

I have not needed to program the mouse but I know you can. You need to go to their website and get the directions. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

No, but you can get X-Mouse Button Control from download. It's free!! It's great too

The keyboard that comes with it is wireless and it doesn't come with a mouse (they think you should use the touchscreen only). I bought a wireless keyboard and mouse for less than $30, they came as a set and use only 1 USB port for the both of them.

Yes this comes with a mouse but we had to send three of them back before we got one that was not defective.

no but any mouse will do.. I wish I had gotten a touch screen because windows 8 is kind of a pain to navigate.

It doesn't have mouse functionality per se. It will do some things a mouse does, but only because there are some supported remote control functions for some software that have corresponding mouse functions. It's like asking what mouse capabilities a keyboard has because it has up/down/left/right arrows.

What question is that? a mouse does not have to do with the operating system. It does work even is there is no operation system. David.

No, it is wireless only so it will always be running on a single AA battery.So if you are not going to be at a mobile workstation, it's better to use a regular wired mouse to save money on batteries.

No. But you can connect a mouse to your computer and use it with the keyboard.

I got the wireless mouse. A USB device inserts into the USB port on your computer. No software download needed. It worked out of the box.

No, it uses a wired mouse, but a wireless mouse is cheap at places like Walmart. I prefer a wired mouse because I don't have to keep turning it on and off. I love this laptop it's fast and always works.

There is no software that comes with the mouse. You can however get third party applications like xmouse to configure them.
