I have six usb ports so I started moving my mouse and keyboard around
to the other ones. None of the ports in the back seem to allow me to
click on anything but I can move the mouse and scroll. And the
keyboard can sometimes activate a item (clicking enter).

I just discovered that the front usb ports though are working for both
my keyboard and mouse and I can click on things and work again. But
how do I trouble shoot the rear ones?
