does three mouse make vista coocoo?

could it be that having three device which act as a mouse can drive vista
crazy. i have my touch pad= one mouse, i have the track ball = 2nd mouse,
and i have a presenter device which also act as my third mouse, all i can
tell is that vista is acting crazy since i put the presenter on and i think
it's cuz it don't know which device to listen to, it's trying to listen to
all of them.

A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely
foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

have you tried disabling the ones you're not using (if applicable, maybe
you need all 3)? I had a similar issue with vista with only two mice, a
touchpad and a USB laser mouse. I disabled the touch pad, and the usb
mouse worked fine, and vista stopped freaking out. later, however, i
had to re-enable the touchpad for mobile use of my laptop. when i put
it back in my dock and re-connected the usb mouse, i forgot to disable
the touchpad that time...but that time both mice acted normally without
issue. I think the problem is just really patchy

i never had a problem with two mouse but it was only when i connected the
presentor on that the issue came up when i rebooted it acted normal again(as
normal as can get) but i could see it wasn't happy one device was saying
left the other was saying right, so i don't know but i took the presentor
out i only connected it to make a test on if it would work with vista, cuz
i'm a DJ and i use my pc as a audio source in my mixer, so i change the
track remotly(because i also like to dance, he he he so this way i can dance
and prepare the next song) yeah so now that i know i won't have a problem
since i don't bring my track ball to party then i know vista will be happy
only to have two mouse instead of three. lol

really cool, me i built the speakers from scratch and got my self a preowned
amp 1000 watts, plus got the mixer, and my speakers are 1175 watts speakers,
it's funny when i bought the speakers especially sub woofers there was a
warning that said human hear will start going deaf at 80 some decibel (84 i
think) then it paused and said theses speakers are designed to go beyond
that. ha ha ha ha, oh yeah got dvd player too pluged in to mixer cuz it play
mp3 also.

you can have as many pointing devices as you want...

there is no limit.. your problem is specific to your hardware...

some kind of incompatibility
