IntelliMouse Explorer 4.0 program specific settings problem
Hi All,
I've got a MS IntelliMouse Explorer 4.0 mouse that's acting up when it comes to program specific settings. It appears as though the mouse sometimes 'forgets' what the program specific settings are and reverts back to the default settings. After a reboot, sometimes it remembers again, sometimes it doesn't. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling both the hardware and IntelliPoint driver (v5.2, which came with the mouse and v5.5, the latest I could find on MS's web site), neither of which has had consistent results. Anyone else run into this and if so, were you able to find a solution? I've Googled this and checked MS's web site and can't find anything on this. My environment is: Dell Precision 380 running Windows XP Pro, version 2002, SP2. Connected hardware includes: MS Internet Keyboard Pro Epson 1660 scanner Belkin mouse/keyboard/monitor switch hooked up to clone machine (hardly ever on) SMC Ethernet switch Dual ViewSonic G220fb monitors Handspring Visor PDA SanDisk memory card reader Blackberry 7520 HandHeld Products Dolphin scanner Software that runs persistently when system is running includes: Outlook 2003 Internet Explorer 6.0, SP2 Windows Media Player 11 Beta (had the same problem with v10, also) Veritas Backup Exec Desktop Agent Task Manager Yahoo Widget Engine (running one, Yahoo produced, widget) ScanSoft Image Retriever v5.1.0.3 Computer Associaets eTrust Antivirus v7.1.501 Xerox Scan Utility v1.0.0.4 If anyone can help, I'd certainly appreciate it. Thanks & Ciao, Tony |

IntelliMouse Explorer 4.0 program specific settings problem
Hey Andrew,
Thanks for the response. I'll take a look at the kb and if all else fails, will do a complete reinstall of both. I really didn't anticipate anyone weighing in on this one, so thanks a million.
