Mice and Pointing Devices

[kaos4]

Hi,

I just purchased a Logitech Optical Mouse USB to replace another mouse. I'm using it with a PS/2 adaptor and Windows XP. The problem is, when I turn off the computer and switch to the Logitech mouse, it won't work. The computer loads up to the login screen, but the cursor is locked. It doesn't seem like the computer recognizes the mouse. If I switch to the older mouse (also using the adaptor) everything works again. Interestingly, when I connect the mouse to my USB port, it takes a minute to recognize and works. I tried downloading and using the logitech software but the mouse still won't work with the ps/2. Is there anyway I can get the logitech mouse to work with the PS/2 port?

Thanks

Hi,

The mouse that you have is not compatible with any USB-PS/2 adapters. It is meant to be used only with a USB port.
