If it is a USB device, check for it using UVCView. UVCView
shows configuration info from a USB device, when the USB
device is plugged in. If you're not seeing anything,
there could be a bad USB cable, or a problem at the
camera end (wrong mode, battery problem or whatever).
UVCView was originally offered on the Microsoft site, but
was removed by them. I've provided links to web.archive.org
to get a copy, but the archive likes to remove the last byte
of some of the files it archives. If you try to run the
archived version, in WinXP, it won't execute. Thus, the
following two links, are alternate locations for a copy
of the utility.
*******
LINK
LINK
File size is 167,232 bytes.
MD5sum is 93244d84d79314898e62d21cecc4ca5e
This is a picture of what the UVCView info looks like.
LINK
Some information on the parameters seen in UVCView.

*******
This should be a USB issue of some sort, and not
be dependent on SMBus and its state. UVCView won't
fix it, but may tell you whether the connection from
the camera to the computer is working.
HTH,
Paul

Thanks Heaps for advice Richard, & Paul for your Advice & Links.Have
something to Chew over now.I might add that when one endeavours to do
the Ts/fer(from Camera to Pc via USB)the mouse pointer freezes.have to
restart pc. I do'nt know if the latter is of any consequence. Regards. jim

Examine the adapter cable, for bent pins. Maybe something is
shorting out.
Is the mouse optical (and visible) ? Does the light go out
when the cursor stops moving ? Perhaps power has been
removed from the mouse for some reason (thus my suggestion
to look at the camera cable).
The enumeration sequence for USB is described in some
detail here. The UVCView tool is showing the results
of that setting up of endpoints, and reading of
device configuration information. Thus, if you get
a full window of stuff from the newly plugged device,
then chances are the physical layer is OK.
