It really annoys me that MS bring out a great new mouse
with software only for XP. I'm using version 4.12 driver
software with Explorer 2 and get partial functionality.
With PS2 I get 5 configurable buttons and the wheel, but
no wheel tilt. Also pointer jumps periodically, except at
one speed setting when this is so slight it is only just
noticable. Under USB I only get the functionality of a 3
button wheelmouse, although pointer is rock steady.
Anyone else tried this mouse under ME and got better
results?
 
Since this an XP forum you probably won't get any answer but this one which
is I don't think so. If M$ did not create a driver for that hardware you are
out of luck.
 
Thanks George for the reply. I guess you are right. I
still don't think it's right for MS to fail to provide
drivers for their own operating systems, particularly a
relatively recent one. Given that the 4.12 driver almost
works OK on ME with this mouse I can't believe it would be
difficult to adapt.
