Hello;
Allow me to welcome you to the HP forums!
IF you have the old dongle plugged in and the new mouse is not working, that answers your question.
I do know that in the case of some Logitech mice, they have something they call a Unifying Receiver that works with a variety of their mice and keyboards, but that is a recent development.
