The reciever hub is recognised (same as for keyboard), but the mouse doesn't act at all. Right now I am running a USB optical mouse, and my wireless is sitting off to the side, but it would be nice if I could get it back. Those are the problems, one other "issue" but not one that is annoying is that the reciever/hub is recognised as a logitec hub, not as a dell one. this may be because dell bought the logitech one and just redid the exteriors, but I thought it was odd that they wouldn't change things up...especially after seeing the way they messed with the SBLive! --Thanks --Dan _________________________________________________________________ Is your PC infected?
