Possible to display & use 2 mouses simultaenously?
« on: December 20, 2009, 10:08 AM »
I was wondering, if there is a simple program which makes able to just plug-in a second mouse and display it and use it on the screen as well as the first one?

I use 2 USB or one USB and one PS/2 on one computer all the time without any problems.

no extra software necessary.

but you are still only controlling one cursor with both mice (mouses?), or do you have a second cursor?

Sorry guys, I didn't read the original post close enough.  I thought it sounded too easy.   :-[

He wants to use two mice and have a cursor for each so as to do possibly two mouse related things at once - something that's not really possible under Windows.
