is there an updated driver ( utility) for the MS Comfort Optical Mouse
3000 please

Mac OS 10.4.8

seems to work as a generic wheel mouse

much better for my big hands than any apple product
(I took the mighty mouse back after 5 hours I was in pain)

Dunno - What version do you *currently* have & what version of Windows? I
believe the latest Intellipoint driver for most device/OS configs is v5.5,
available here:

Curious - It's what I've been using for my MS Trackball Optical & have had
no problems, but thanks for the reminder.

yes the one off the cd was 5.3
so duly updated

I used to use the MS five button mouse
which was especially good for copy paste

the scroll button preferences drop down menu is dodgy

copy worked like cut

but I allocated control + c to get a copy which did copy

but that has also .. aha confusion over the apple key and its new name
command

now it works

the intersting thing is using a danish oem WinXP sp2 in parallels has a
difffeent effect

so I am installing that driver too on my virtual pc

which disabled the parallels mouse synchronisation tool

so I have to press
control + alt + command
to get the mouse pointer active back in the mac OS

the most fun thing is using windows with an apple danish keyboard
I can never find the @

most embarrassing whne filling forms to copy paste the "@" into my email
address
