The boot option /NoSerialMice should do the trick. See: https://support.microsoft.com/en-en/kb/131976 However, unklike mentioned in the above article, you can't just edit a boot.ini file in current Windows versions. Instead you have to run the bcdedit utility shipped with Windows. See: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/ff545492%28v=vs.85 %29.aspx Haven't tried this under Windows 10, yet, but hope it still works.
