A. The new Microsoft mice use IntelliPoint 3.0 software whichruns under Windows NT with Service Pack 3 installed. The software is notcurrently supported under Windows 2000 however you can install with thefollowing command:

C:> :setupsetup setup win2000
e.g. d:setupsetup setup win2000

I would expect to see a Windows 2000 version of the IntelliPoint softwareshortly.

You cannot use the USB connection in Windows NT 4.0 but it works fine inWindows 2000.

B.T.W. The new Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer is very cool :-)

An update, http://www.microsoft.com/products/hardware/mouse/driver/drivers_pc.htmis now available which runs on Windows 2000.
