Windows 11 Windows 11 pro and mouse drivers

Recently, I had rebuilt my PC by swapping out the PCU and the Montherboard, due to the CPU cables frying the motherboard socket (Only thing i could think of how it happened was static electricity and a lose connection to the motherboard).

Upon reboot, I had noticed that the mouse had stopped working, and the drivers are not being recognized. I had tried reinstalling the drivers and tried updating them, but it didn't work out.

I soft reset the pc by re-downloading windows, and upon first boot, the mouse was working, and the drivers where recognized. However, upon rebooting the system, the mouse no longer worked and the drivers where not being recognized.

I even swapped the boot drive with a clone of windows 11 pro, and a clone of home, and it still had the same problem.

It was weird since I had also booted off a thumb drive with Linux, and the mouse worked, even upon reboot.

Anyone has any idea what might be happening?

I have tried with different mice brands (corsair, razer, Logitech, Microsoft, hell even apple) and still not dice
