I've just upgraded (if that's what you can call it) to Windows 2000.
What a bunch of poo.
There's NO drivers for my souncard at all, so I have to bloody well buy another one.
AND the my MICROSOFT mouse doesn't bloody work either! It's just a mouse with the wheel button thing on. So I downloaded the latest Win2K intellipoint drivers, installed them and sod all has happened.
It detects the wheel for scrolling documents, but NOWHERE does it let me use the wheel button as a double click.
Anyone got any ideas?
I think I may have to go back to Win 98 if anything else of mine doesn't work...

Let this be a lesson for you - stick with what you know
Win98 is the way forward. Plays all your old games, and all the new ones. No serious bugs, just a huge amount of non-critical ones. No hassle, top stuff.

The fact is that there are NO drivers for my soundcard.
It's an Diamond MX300 which uses the Aureal Vortex 2 chipset, and Creative bought Aureal before they released any Win 2K drivers, there's just some 85% finished Beta Drivers. Which don't work.
As for the mouse, it's ridiculous!

Heh, in my opinion, it is.
I'm told that Windows 2000 is the best of all the Windows OSs..
Not that I'd know..

Strange, WinXP is paranoid about assiging actions to the middle mouse button too, even with my IntelliEye.
Hum, all Windows are barstewards to set up. Nothing compared to the sheer volume of reading and thinking required to get hardware working on Linux though.
Bleh, all OSs are gay.

"Windows 2000 is gay" Did you see it humping another copy of Windows 2000 then? Ahem. Anyway.
Its crap that version anyway, WIN98SE is the way forwards, even though its an older version...

I'll have it, surely there are drivers for that mouse, I thought it was Microsoft's most popular one...
Can't you ask your Soundcard's manufacturer's where to get the drivers from, if they don't have them? maybe you could contact their support staff for some advice, maybe contact Microsoft about your Mouse drivers too.
