Hi,

I've recently "accidentally" bought an A1Pro Optical USB mouse, which, according to the importer, supports Windows NT. However, this was not the case (and I've just remembered that NT does not support USB).

Right now, I have some third-party program which enables the USB drives, and it recognises the USB mouse. However, there is some problem with loading the driver. Is there any way about this?

Thanks in advance.

Russ.
 
I had a similar problem and got around it by using a USB to PS/2 converter, NT picked this up without any problems. You usually get these free when buying a USB mouse.
 
Thanks, but the converter I got with the mouse was a PS/2 to USB one :(
 
Thats a bit strange getting a PS/2 to USB converter with a USB mouse??
You could buy one as they are cheap?
