Calling All MS BlueTooth Intellimouse Owners

[BullsOnParade_]

Hi guys,

My little bro decided to munch on my driver disk and now i'm mouseless after a clean install,
and to boot, MS doesn't supply the drivers online. I was wondering if anyone could ftp/email etc... me a copy
of them.

thanks a ton,
~bulls

[BullsOnParade_]

help!^

 

[LbJustinTime]

Not for sure if you tried this, but you may wanna do a google search for the drivers.

 

[BullsOnParade_]

hehe thanks. I've been looking everywhere and no luck so far. I'm surfin boards to find someone who owns one and i
figured i'd start at the best one first.

Tried them, unfortunately that didn't work. Appearantly they are version 4.1 while the version
that is bundled with the mouse is 4.9. Blast MS for not putting them online @#$#!!!! what a pain
in my @$$.

I want one badly but it will be a long time before I can afford to buy one and make a CD image

 

[BullsOnParade_]

Thanks for the thought Czroe, hehe it might be just as long till i get
mine working again. Come to think of it i dont really need the cd image.
I'm sure the file is simply written on there and can't be more than 10mb?

Circuit city has a no questions asked return i believe. Buy one, copy the disk and return it.

They are great. No lag at all. I found you need a decent mouse surface/mat though. They do use battery power quite a bit though. Last about 2 weeks.

In one of my other posts Here, Someone said that the MS Bluetooth had crap responce times. That was my primary reason for decideding on getting the MX500 in a weeks time.
What i mean by responce times, is what is it like in games? As good as a corded mouse, or slightly worse.

On a decent surface I have not really noticed a difference. I may even be brave enough to say I have got a little better in terms of accuracy...

 

[CZroe]

The Bluetooth mouse is contoured exactly like the Wireless Intellimouse Explorer, which DOES have horrible lag in games (You must "lead" with the Rail Gun while offline just as if you were playing online). It's great for other things though. MS has many other wireless mice now and I'm sure someone just confused the two...

 

[BoomAM]

But whats the Bluetooth version like for games?
