Mouse is not working! - Compaq Armada 1250

[Kelphyr]

Everything boots up but either two mouse do not work. Won't mouse on the screen and I don't see any button on the keyboard to make it mouse like on Linux Puppy. I had problemes with Linux Puppy aswell about the mouse, but I set it to P/S2(or something like that) and it worked afterward. Could anyone help me?

Answer must be simple cause, I'm from Windows but love Linux but im a real newb to it.
