Sounds like a hardware configuration/driver issue. Having identical machines, you can troubleshoot more easily.

(0.) Are the machines truly identical in hardware?

1. Start at the BIOS at boot time - go through all the screens and make sure the settings are the same as those on a working machine.

2. In Windows, go into Device Manager and check that all hardware, but especially video driver and mouse hardware is detected correctly and has functional drivers installed.

3. Press Ctrl-Alt-Del and look in the list of running processes - see if anything is different between the two machines.
