Trust me they are both very adept at following threads...i think what was suggested is that a $15.00 PS2 mouse while maybe overlooked would eliminate it being a hardware problem.

At least that's how i see it...ah, that might be true... but these days i've found no real difference in hardware compatibility for ps/2 and usb, so i would think that it would be more the computer software's fault

(maybe i'm biased, ever since windows 95 i've only had problems with software, rarely hardware)
(and i've had some of the worst software issues i've ever heard of or SEEN online [bad luck i guess])

as for help, denise, if you want to test using ps/2 and TRYING it as a SOLUTION, most LOGITECH packages (at least for the past few years) contain a small converter from usb to ps/2 that can be plugged onto the usb end of your mouse and keyboard set. the converter will look something like this:



once you have done this, you can plug the converter with your mouse and keyboard into the BACK of your computer, to the corresponding jack(s) as shown in the picture provided by contrex.

let us know if it works!
