ok... it doesn't say "Synaptics ps/2 port pointing device." here's the deal: I have a touchpad in the standard spot, and a lil blue nub in the middle of my keyboard, that's also a mouse. then I have a kensington mouse to make life easier. I have also used a small micro-mini optical mouse (micro innovations) for use in class, but it's not hooked up. I looked in the device manager, and this is what I found: |->Kensington HID Mouse*in*a*Box Optical Elite |->Kensington PS/2 Mouse Driver
so that's what I've found. I'm gonna try and see if your external will work. Thanks for your help, Robert

Check under : control panel / system / hardware tab/ device manager/ mice and other pointing devices
It has to say something like : Synaptics ps/2 port pointing device.
If you do have a synaptics, install the proper drivers and then try my experimental external:
