I just recently started (to try) to play Skyrim, but I was cut short by a major issue. I can't click on hardly anything. When trying to open the menu and options, I'm fine. I can click on anything in the options menu. But when it comes to doing simple things like, I dunno, MAKING MY FIRST CHARACTER, I can't even get the damn slider to move so I can adjust what he looks like.

I'm playing on a PC, Windows 7 64-bit. All of my computer components are well within the necessary guidelines to operate the game well, so what is it? Why can't I click on anything? I have only encountered one other person who has had this problem and they haven't gotten an answer yet either!
