Does anyone have any ideas while using novell networks and a usb mouse it will lock up the computer or not allow access to the network. Or just crash???? I have run out of ideas, im using the Logitech Marble Mouse and have tried other usb mice, same prob. Without usb mice the network and computer run fine. The computer when operating on its own from the network will work fine. Its only when i try and use a usb mouse in the novel networks. This problem occurs on 5 different machines. But when set up on a normal TCP/IP network without Novell the computer works fine???? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I tried Novell's Knowledgebase, but they don't have anything describing your problem. It can't be an IRQ conflict if a standard TCP/IP network works. What version of Netware are you running and what Client version are you using? If you're not using v3.3 of the Client you may want to upgrade, IF you've got all the latest service packs installed on your server(s) first.

The only thing I can think of since it's on a local machine is what version of Client are you using. I use different USB mice on my systems with out problem. There may be a conflict with the driver and the Client.
