randiroo76073 Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Couldn't find a place to fit this in, so here goes. Got a really sweet deal on a MS Itellipoint Explorer2 wireless mouse, after my special card rebate was USD $3.00 , now here's the rub, mouse works but can't get features[2 extra buttons & tilt wheel scroll] cause software won't load[for 2k & XP]. I ckd MS & nothing at all for 98se/ME, is there a way to fool cd to load software? CD is MS Intellipoint 5.2 mouse software. Am, of course willing to use in reg mode as wireless scroll mouse , but would like extras if possible. TIAFAIPS: if wrong place, move me wherever PPS: I'm just getting ready to load SP 2.0.1, trying to put ducks in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDGx Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 I've tried once b4, I couldn't "rig" Intellipoint 5.2 to work with 98/98SE/ME. I have an Intellimouse Explorer 4.0a with side wheel, and the side whell works only in XP/2003/Longhorn only with Intellipoint 5.2.But [most of] the extra buttons should work with the older software [last ver of Intellimouse for 9x was 4.12]:http://www.mdgx.com/drv.htm#MOUMicrosoft IntelliPoint Mouse Drivers, Tools + Wheel for Windows 9x/NT4/2000/ME/XP/2003 + MS-DOS 6/7/8 (English):http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/mouseand...d/download.mspx- IntelliPoint v5.2 for Windows 2000/XP/2003 [6.84 MB]:http://download.microsoft.com/download/7/C...77/IP5_2Eng.exe- IntelliPoint v4.12 for Windows 98/NT4/ME [9.68 MB]:http://download.microsoft.com/download/4/8...12EngALLMsi.exe- IntelliPoint v4.01 for Windows 95/OSR1/OSR2 + MS-DOS 6/7/8 [7 MB]:http://download.microsoft.com/download/int..._0EngALLMsi.exeAlternative Mouse Pointers for Windows 9x/NT/2000/ME/XP/2003:http://support.microsoft.com/?id=154500Direct download [90 KB]:http://download.microsoft.com/download/win...N-US/altpnt.exe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
