Hi all,

Although this is not a programming question, I take the chance to jump in here
as this thread relates to a problem I've tried to solve for months.

I can't install the Intellipoint software on one of my Win2000 systems because I
can't get rid of the present mouse software.
The installation program itself seems to work, but after rebooting after the
installation, a very rudimentary mouse control is automatically installed. It
doesn't support a wheel mouse at all.

What happens is:
1. I run the Intellipoint installer
2. I reboot as prompted after the installation
3. when rebooting, some automatic installation process is automatically started,
there are no prompts or dialogs. When it is finished, I am prompted to reboot
again
4. after the second reboot, there I am with the same old mouse software

When looking in the Device Manager/Mouse it says I have a "Logitec PS/2 Port
Mouse", which I don't. I have an "IntelliMouse 1.1A PS/2 Compatible".

I have deleted the mouse both from Add/Remove Hardware and from the Device
Manager before installing Intellipoint. I also found a mouse-related "Run"-item
in the Registry, which i deleted, but the d***n thing keeps coming back.

I have tried Intellipoint 4.0 and 4.1 - no difference. No problems at all with
my other Win2K box.

Any ideas?

Best regards,
Anders Silvén

Mike,

We had a discussion in this NG a few weeks ago..
and to my utter amazement ...

Logitech mice (with standard windows or logitech mouseware drivers)
will NOT scroll in VBE

But you can download Intellipoint (Microsoft mousedrivers)
and they will allow VBE scrolling with Logitech hardware
