IBM t7200 Laptop, left mouse button won't click

The bottom left mouse button right below the touchpad will not work. I figured out how to use the button above the mousepad, but every time I reboot it I have to reconfigure. It's annoying not being able to click anything. Anybody have any suggestions? I reset the mouse from the "UltraNAV" mouse properties but it doesn't fix it.

Did you consider replacing it?

No haven't considered replacing it yet. I didn't want to have to spend the money. I figured I got the other button to work so there may be a way to get the other one to work. If I have to replaceit so be it, but it's a work computer and they aren't willing to replace it, they want me to use an external mouse which is a pain when I'm not at a desk.
