Make sure you allow "unsigned" drivers to be installed on your system.

Select drivers from different manufacturers are approved by Microsoft, which are then "signed" or approved. The Diamondback drivers aren't signed.

To make sure they are being allowed, press the Windows key + Break (shortcut for "System" in the Control Panel), and click on Driver Signing under the Hardware tab. Make sure that they aren't blocked from there (by default it is on "Warn")

Try to delete the drivers, then CLEAN your registry. There's plenty of registry cleaners in google. Restart your computer, install drivers, restart computer, connect mouse.
