Thanks Sevatio! I feel like a right dork! I switched mice (plugged in the
cordless Intellimouse), flicked the switches on both the mouse and its
receiver, and it went haywire again (flickering along the top of the
screen). I then rebooted the computer, and whaddayaknow? BINGO, I now have
a mouse and scroll wheel! Why I didn't try switching the buttons before,
I'll never know.
Another problem solved. Thanks again.
Cheers
skinky

Subject: Re: [newbie] imwheel = no mouse
Sorry, I just caught the tail end of this thread... You mention that
you're having trouble with your cordless intellimouse. It should behave
just like a regular mouse with a wheel. Have you tried pressing the
"Connect" button on the mouse and its receiver? Or, if you have Windows
installed, does the cordless mouse work there?
