The Windows setup correctly reported having found a Logitech mouse, and proceded with the install, however, at the point where it starts Windows, or rather is supposed to, it simply hangs the machine. Same thing happens if I reconfigure from within the Control Panel and then restarts. I have given up for now and simply switches mice between Windows 3.0 and X-Windows, when the dust settles I hope that either Microsoft or Logitech come up with an explanation or better even, a solution. PS: Shouldn't we move this to comp.windows.ms? +-------------------------------------------------+---------------------------+ |Peter Frenning, Altos Computer Systems, San Jose | ***** TANSTAAFL ***** | |2641 Orchard Parkway, San Jose, CA 95134 | There Ain't No Such Thing | |pfrennin@Altos.COM (..!uunet|sun!altos!pfrennin) | As A Free Lunch (Heinlein)| +-------------------------------------------------+---------------------------+
