    This may work for you as it has some people:
     
    1. Go to device manager and go to the properties of the unknown device. then click update driver.

    2. click on install manually

    3. next you need to browse to this place

    4. C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\

    5. then find the folder that begins with msmouse open then select this folder

    6. in the text box it would look something like: C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\msmouse.inf_{Some Id Here}

    7. { Some Id Here } being the id for your computer

    8. then click next / install
     
    Your milage may vary, this has worked for some and some it hasn't...
