Hey, So I recently broke ALL my USB holes on my laptop and am really used to using a mouse but I know can't.
I'm useless when it comes to this kind of stuff so maybe you could tell me my options on what I have to do/buy to be able to use A mouse again.

Maybe this will help.

I was think of buying a wireless mouse but I still need a USB hole working.

I think there isn't a posible way to fix your USB holes or even replace them, I will research and little and even ask my maintance teacher for you.

EDIT: I actually found a way out, you will have to buy an USB port and you have to a soldering kit and a desoldering kit and you have to buy a USB port exactly the same as the old one, otherwise it won't fit, although there is a pretty hard thing over since it's laptop you will have to be extremly careful opening and I don't even know if you can acess the USB ports without removing something else from the way, if you are able to remove atleast one of the USB ports, you might replace that one and buy a USB Hud like this.

You could take it down to a repairer and get it fixed.

If your laptop support bluetooth you could consider buying a bluetooth-mouse, this connects to your inside of the PC so you dont need USB.

If you have one usb slot left that works you can consider buying a USB-hub, the one that thomas showed already.

If none of these options are availble then you should bring it to a repair service.
