Hi Lacey,
take a Windows boot disk 98 or ME with you and a PS2 mouse, it may be a USB
conflict.
A usb mouse will not work in DOs for the restore clicks<G>
Boot up with the floopy then choose MS-DOS from the list of options to get
to the restore option
You may also be able to backup her data with a dos program called Xcopy

Uh, thats okay if its working properly but currently she can only boot up in
safe mode and has no mouse clickie or keyboard (she says).... I'm going
over there tomorrow to figure it out... sometimes its easier to figure out
the problem in person than over the phone!
Thanks,
