Adding a second (microsoft) USB mouse, can't get wheel to work?


Recommended Posts

Hi there.

 

Im running Windows XP SP2 + all fixes released. Upon til today I only

had a "Microsoft Natural Wireless Laser Mouse 6000", connected through

USB. Everything worked well, except for the poor performance in games

which is why I decided to buy another mouse.

 

Today I got the "Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 3.0", which I also

connected on USB. Now it seems these two mice can cooperate on the

system with just one, VERY annoying glitch. The mousewheel on my

Intellimouse explorer just wount work, unless I unplug the Wireless

laser mouse, then the wheel instantly works.

 

Im using the latest (v6.1 I think) drivers for intellimouse from

Microsoft. No matter what settings I seem to try in the drivers

nothing activates the wheel, only unplugging the first wireless mouse

makes it work, instantly.

 

Is there any way of getting this to work together? Or is the only

(ugly IMHO) solution to disconnect/connect the mouse I'm using at the

moment?

 

Regards

/Kristian aka Dudde.

perhaps plugging in both

your mouse devices into

a single external usb hub will

help route only one mouse

signal/transmission at a time

to your computer.

.....possibly relevant :-) ...recently, two mice showing in Device Manager

on my PC prevented hibernation !

....I didn't think that one could have , or would even want, have more than

one mouse connected to the same PC !

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315664

"This issue may occur when the selective suspend functionality is enabled on

a device that does not support it. This situation may occur when two or more

USB-based devices have the same vendor and product identification numbers,

and when only one of the devices supports the selective suspend

functionality."

Hi.

 

Currently I use the two USB ports in my Monitor. So unfortunately I have

already tried the external hub, and it does not help, but thanks for the tip

anyway.
