IBM optical mouse model MO09BO

[Guest]

Hi

Looks like , I am the only one in this world who is using above MODEL
(optical mouse - USB based) of IBM mouse with Toshiba laptop (M30-344).

When I connect this mouse to my USB socket, Windows XP detects some hardware
and tells me that HID driver is installed for it when I check using Device
manager.

I am using SP1a.

I figured out may be its not correct driver so I searched whole of IBM
websites to look for driver for this model...but its not even mentioned
anywhere.

I searched who WEB but nobody seems to metion it at all ???

Can anybody help me ?

The HID is the correct driver (at least one of them). HID stands for
Human Interface Device and is installed for all USB interface devices.

Contact IBM for the other drivers.

courtney sends...

A mouse _is_ a Human interface device....

I am sorry. It appears I didnot define problem correctly.

Description:
Though XP detects HID as driver for my IBM mouse model MO09BO but I simply
can not do with mouse because I cant do anything with cursor or mouse pointer
on the screen because mouse pointer doesnt move if I move my mouse....

I mean, my mouse doesnt seem to control mouse pointer on the screen.
However, my touchpad keep functioning well and I can control mouse pointer

Hi,

Check the touchpad setting, set it to auto disable when a PS/2 or USB mouse
is inplace. RTFM
