KAOS 0 Posted March 24, 2000 Ok this is the deal.. Im running Windows 2k 333mhz Celeron. 128mb pc-100 SDRAM 3 hard drives and a 40x cd-rom.. Sound Blaster Live and Liveware 2k.. (finally got it workin).. I have problems with my keyboard and mouse.. Keyboard really isnt a big issue only happens when im playing everquest.. the mouse problems is whats buggin me.. Ok i have a no name brand ps/2 2-button mouse.. and another no name brand USB mouse with a scroll wheel that i bought from outpost.com.. No drivers for the USB mouse because windows 2k is always installing that HID compliant crap.. as long as the scroll wheel is working and the buttons i dont care.. So the default win2k installs is fine. Problems with the ps/2 mouse are.. Of and On at random times.. the pointer jumps all over the screen and buttons get push.. I have to leave the mouse still for about 10 to 30 seconds and when i move it after i sit it still everything is fine.. But it does this off and on off and on and i dont know why.. Ok the USB mouse starts workin all fine and stuff but then. It will just stop working.. No Exclamation marks in device manager no conflicts no shared IRQ's.. The only way to get the USB mouse back working is to reboot.. thats why i have both mouse hooked up. So when the USB stops workin i use the ps/2 one.. i dont know what could be causing this problem.. i need a fix though or potential things i should be looking at.. Motherboard i have is a Procomp B782.. Based on some VIA chipset.. Yes i downloaded the Newly Released Filter Drivers and that helped with the USB controller getting installed correctly.. Link to motherboard Maker is.. http://www.procompusainc.com or http://www.procomp.com.tw Model is B782... Thanks Share this post Link to post

KAOS 0 Posted March 24, 2000 I Didnt mean like no name.. The PS/2 is from PC concepts.. And the USB mouse is an Inland USB Internet mouse.. A USB ProMouse or somethin.. And they are both hooked up right now at same time.. but im not moving them around at the same time or anything like that. Share this post Link to post

KAOS 0 Posted March 25, 2000 Nothin really in there that i see wrong. other than my C: drive is kinda low on space.. ill move some things and see if that helps.. but when the problem happens. it seems if i move the ps/2 mouse.. buttons click. if a push a button on it.. the arrow moves.. sorta like the stuff gets reversed.. weird.. i dont know what the USB problem is.. I think i might just be getting a new motherboard.. Anyone know if windows 2k needs to be reinstalled? or can i do it the shortcut way by removing everything in device manager and install motherboard.. then drivers accordingly next time it boots?
