2 mice on the same computer.

As the title Say's, would there be any conflict dose any body know.

The reason for two mice is, the second one being a small one for my granddaughter to use comfortable.

mr_fishbulb

shouldn't be a problem. What connections are they (e.g. 2 USB / 2 PS2 / or 1 USB and 1 PS2)?

I have a usb mouse and a Infrared Pointer in the PS2 hole and I can use them both at the same time.

Will work fine (I've tried it).
You can have a great Tug Of War contest with your Granddaughter too!

I have a mouse and a graphics tablet running at the same time. I don't know if this would be the same but I just don't move them together!

Can confirm, have a serial and a USB mouse plugged in (sometimes I take the USB one away for my laptop so the old one is a backup)

You have a serial mouse!?! Man that's old sk00l!

Just make sure you don't move them at the same time! You can have any combination of 1 x USB, 2 x USB, 1 x USB and 1 x PS/2 or if a serial mouse if you have an older computer.

Its a P4 3Ghz with dual 17" Iiyama TFTs on a Matrox Dual head P650. It has over 500Gb of storage and a Gb of RAM. However it still has a serial port, so I have the mouse as a spare! Its at work and we have boxes of spares going back to the 1980's. Every so often I try to do a spring clean and weed some out, but I swear it is breeding!

Thanks for all your comments.
I'm going to order them from here, they seem very reasonable.
