Microsoft wireless mouse
New Microsoft wireless mouse box does not include ME as a
compatible operating system. Before I open the box, has anyone been able to use Microsoft's wireless mouse with the ME system. Thank you. |

It is theoretically possible if you can find older drivers for the mouse,
but I haven't seen them myself. I would return the box, unopened, and get one that is guaranteed to work with WindowsMe. -- Richard G.

I should have looked at the box before I bought the mouse but I thought ME was recent enough that I didn't question that it would work. I will take your advice. Thank you. |

You're welcome.
And yes, that is a bit confusing sometimes - since WindowsMe came out after Windows 2000, you'd think it would be supported ... but isn't. -- Richard G.

Microsoft wireless mouse
I also unfortunately have windows ME and just purchased a
wireless keyboard/mouse set. i was able to get both of them working, by booting up with them plugged in, and resetting the connections on the receiver. I was unable however to install the software. I got an error 1101. apparently i had some temp files in windows that were not accessible, leading me to believe these are available with microsoft XP. but...they work. -----Original Message----- New Microsoft wireless mouse box does not include ME as a compatible operating system.
