Have you tryed the text installation? just start using the cd and in
the presentation screen type F1 and in the next screen type text.
I have one time the same problem using MDK 7.0 and the mouse worked
using the text installtion. Nevertheless, I had any problem in the same
computer using Mandrake 7.1 or 7.2, why you don't try one of these new
versions??
