Mouse Drivers Colliding..??????? help
Hello all,
Little help please
I had a MS optical mouse, and it started shutting off while playing Battlefield Vietnam, and if I unplugged it, sometimes system would freeze. So, tried to reinstall drivers and it said "could not access a file" which was in the windows/temp folder.
So i said fine... I'll go buy another.
Went to comp usa and got a logitech optical mouse. Came back and installed it, and seemed to work fine for a bit, then started having probs. Got a blue screen (windows protection screen).
So the only thing I could do was revert my hard drive to a earlier state , which i did and now Im back to the MS Mouse.
My question is; Can the 2 different drivers for the mouses (I didnt uninstall the MS mouse driver before installing Logitech mouse), collide with each other to cause a problem like I described above? And should I try and get rid of the ms mouse drivers before installing a different mouse?
There is no way to remove it from add/remove program under control panel, all i can do is try and delete the driver from the device manager under Display Adapter.
oh, and by the way... I did update my Ge Force 5700 ultra driver also that day since a new one came out 3-15 which was 56.64 nivida driver, but ive never had a problem updating my graphics card before, Ummmmmm but I did not uninstall the old 53.04 drivers first.<doh> So, what do you think.... Graphics or mouse drivers..??
what do you think?
thanks,
Tan~
