in Techie Stuff
I know this is strictly speaking an 'I wanna buy it or do it' ... but I've tried there & got no response, so I'm hoping some of you techies can help
I'm going cross-eyed searching for one with the above specs
I've found a few that fit the bill, other than them having no mention of being W98 friendly
I want to use it with my KVM switcher so I can use my spare pc to play some old games that absolutely refuse to run under XP
does anyone have any suggestions?
I'm looking for a half-decent one rather than a cheapo if possible
TIA

anyone?0 -
hmmm well wireless (bluetooth etc) and W98 (is it W98SE ?) are from different era's, unless your KVM is powered then the receiver will not work. Has your pc USB and/or ps/2 ports - You need to ensure that the mouse you buy can connect to pc etc ..
Have look on MS's site - their wireless mice seem to have drivers for MAC's and W98 - you will have to expand the sys requ. to see what drivers are included.
