    use the window key to navigate the start menu, then use your arrow keys to highlight shutdown, tab to shutdown, hit enter, then connect mouse and restart computer.

    There is a way to navigate the menu's without a mouse. I've done it, but it's been awhile. If you can do this, then you could go into device manager and remove the mouse that's showing. Then plug your mouse into port after you've shut down. I'll see if I can find my question on here about navigating without mouse.
