Wireless Mice & Vista Screensavers
So I just found out why my screensaver doesn't activate..... I have a
wireless mouse. I read this has been a problem throughout every pre-release of Vista. When is this going to get fixed? I need my wireless mouse, but I also need my screensaver.

Wireless Mice & Vista Screensavers
I have the Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000. I read another
thread that many people had the same problem. I confirmed this by unplugging my mouse. Then screensaver came on as configured. It is my mouse.... So, maybe not all mice... "Paul" wrote: I have a wireless mouse (Microsoft Wireless Intellimouse Explorer 2) and the screensaver works for me...

Wireless Mice & Vista Screensavers
There is a knowledge base article 911895 on this subject. It's for XP SP2 but
applies to Vista as well. I don't think it's the mouse so much as it is the wireless receiver. The new version 3.x receivers seem to be causing problems. Some folks have talked about getting the older version 2.x to correct the problem. I just installed an MS Desktop Laser 6000 and my screen saver quit. I only used the keyboard not the mouse (I use a wired MS Explorer Trackball). Previoulsy I used a Logitech BT setup with no problems. I removed the 6000 setup, put the Logitech back on and the screen saver worked. "BigJim" wrote: I use a logitech with no problems with Vista and using the installed drivers.

It depends on the mhz (or whatever) of the wireless device. My MS Wireless
6000 Desktop exhibited this problem, the mouse works on the 27mhz frequency which is what causes the problem. I went and brought a Logitech mouse and keyboard that runs on the 2.4ghz range, and no problems. MS has noted that it is the 27mhz frequency that causes the problem. Initially they said the the full release of Intellitype would fix the problem but it didn't. "BigJim" wrote in message . ..

These are details of the HID update that appeared on the Vista Update site..
Microsoft - Other Hardware - HID Non-User Input Data Filter Installation date: ‎06/‎02/‎2007 10:57 Installation status: Successful Update type: Optional Microsoft Other Hardware software update released in January, 2007 More information: http://winqual.microsoft.com/support/?driverid=20031770 More information: http://support.microsoft.com/select/?target=hub One guy gotten notification back again, having ignored it first time around, by uninstalling Dreamscene.. the update re-appeared.. I am not sure if he went for the Dreamscene update again.. It is also possible that the update has recently been included in the driver available from the MS website.. http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/mo...d/default.mspx "Rich Cunningham" wrote in message ...

There is already a update available for this, I don't recall the name
exactly but somthing like HID compliant hardware. I installed it a couple weeks ago when it was first released and my screensaver works fine now. I too use the 300 mouse as well as the microsoft natural wireless 6000 "Mike B." wrote in message news So I just found out why my screensaver doesn't activate..... I have a wireless mouse.
