And for some reason my mouse doesn't work on windows anymore so I have to be on linux.

If you haven't already done so, try this (you can do the entire process with just your keyboard):
Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Device Manager > Human Interface Devices (if it's a USB mouse) or
Mice and other pointing devices (if it's not). Hit Shift+Enter on the mouse device icon, Tab over to "Driver" tab, and tab down to the "Uninstall" button. Close out of that dialog box, hit Alt, arrow over to Action, hit Enter, arrow down to "Scan for hardware changes." Your mouse should start working again momentarily.
I have to do this frequently with my Microsoft optical mouse, the piece of crap. It works just fine in Linux, but I can't run Linux on this particular machine because my USB wireless adapter isn't compatible. I use Linux on my other box though.
