plug the cables back in and turn the
computers on.
Some mice can be set to act as either
a PS/2 or serial mouse. Make sure the
mouse is set to PS/2 mode.
Check your Device Manager to be sure
that the correct driver for your mouse
(obtained from the manufacturer, or
supplied by the operating system), has
been installed.

TroubleShooting Con’d
The unit is designed to work
with PS/2 keyboards. XT
(84 key) and AT keyboards
will not work.
Some Notebooks, notably
the IBM Thinkpad and
Toshiba Tecra, have trouble
when their mouse and
keyboard ports are used
simultaneously. To avoid
this, only connect the
mouse port, you will need to
use the notebook’s
keyboard when the
notebook becomes the
active computer.
