Sounds like a USB > PS2 converter that you are using, I'm guessing you're using it because you prefer the wires out the way or have no spare USB ports otherwise just use a rear USB

Anyways, on topic......

1 - Prior to move no settings were changed ?
2 - Have you checked the BIOS, is USB legacy support enabled?
3 - When computer boots up, have you tried navigating to device manager, check for errors?
4 - Are there any lights that light up on the mouse (providing it's optical)?
5 - USB adapter could be naff

I'd suggest removing and reinstalling the mouse via device manager, make sure all cables are correctly connected and no pins are bent / broken off. It should pick it up

if you running out of spare USB's, pick up a cheap Hub, save you kicking out the mouse like I did and broke one of my front usb sockets.
