Ok, well I'll look at the work that Anthony has put in already and see what we come up with. Speaking of Win98. I just tried this under win98, and after it installed its usb kit and the HID driver it kinda works.. looks like win98 expects 0x0-0xffff while 2k expects 0x0-0x7fff for the position information.. buttons are ok and tracking is good, just the target pointer only moves half the distance. A problem perhaps, but one that could be worked around in a pinch.. -- "Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so." -- Douglas Adams
