Using two mouse devices in windows - Very cool

I found a cool driver that supports multiple mice in windows at http://cpnmouse.sourceforge.net/
After some configurations I managed to hook 2 of them. One cool effect can be seen when using MS Paint.

Are you using one USB and another PS/2 ? Coz I'm having a cursor bug when I move the second mouse, I steels my main cursor... can you help me?

@papaicorudo I used two USB ports.

1. You must make sure that the driver recognizes your mice PID.

2. You must update the driver of both mice to the dual mouse driver

3. You must run the included demo program for this to work.

Will this work for my dual monitor windows 7 ????? please respond

I wouldn't recomment it for using two mice by two different people, since there are some display issues and the two mice simple "steal" the mouse cursor from each other.

But I didn't see any better solution. Just pluggin in two mice without this driver will force the users to move the mouse cursor to their screen and lose the cursor every time the other person uses the mouse.

Regarding the driver and Windows 7, I didn't test it, so I wouldn't know, but it MIGHT work. Try it & let me know.
