for proper instructions on how to uninstall the software and drivers.

be sure to identify the type of mouse port you are using (USB or
PS/2). Refer to the diagrams below if you have difficulty determining
which kind of port your mouse uses.

IMPORTANT: Do not install the software until the mouse is connected
to your computer. If you have not yet connected the mouse, please
follow the Hardware Installation instructions.

1. Make sure your computer is turned on before installing the mouse.

2. Check “Add/Remove Program” in your control panel for any

programs from your previous mouse. If you have anything

installed for your old mouse, please un-install before continuing.

4. A New Hardware Wizard will start automatically.

NOTE: In Windows Me and XP, the New Hardware Wizard will complete

to go through the Hardware-Wizard process, clicking the appropriate
prompts as necessary. Windows 98 may also require you to insert your
Windows 98 Installation CD into your computer to complete the install.

5. When your installation is complete, insert the batteries

into the mouse and the mouse should sync up with the

receiver automatically.

NOTE: If the mouse does not sync up with the receiver
automatically, please see instructions titled “Synchronizing
your Mouse to your Receiver”.

6. When your mouse is properly connected and functioning as a

standard mouse, you can start the software installation for the

extra button features.
