I got a used PC, but the Mouse (called Z-NIX Inc)feezes up haphazardly forcing me to keep rebooting. Where can I get an updated driver please (assuming this is the problem). My OS is Win 2000.

Another good site to find drivers is WinDrivers, found at www.windrivers.com - once you load the first page, click on "Advanced Search" in the left pane, and you can search for your driver by manufacturer's name. Good luck! --Sean

Could be the mouse or the PS2 port. Borrow a serial port mouse, they aren't pretty. But I bet it works without a hitch.

Hello

Have you checked Microsoft's hardware compatibility list to see if your mouse is suitable for use with Windows 2000?

Also, I had a similar problem with a W95 machine. The problem was being caused by the presence of more than one mouse driver, the second driver had an ! beside it in Device Manager. Removing the faulty device from the manager cured the problem

Hope this helps
