ok, things went ahead of schedule, and i'm back online

now, i need my USB trackball to work, and i need help. my USB printer ad joystick work fine, but my trackball refuses. i installed all drivers a few times, i installed the logitech disk accompannying the thing, i tried about anything, i even read the helpfile. what do i do next?

to further complicate the problem, another USB mouse works perfectly, and installed without any drivers, i only needed to plug in the thing.

also, when i plug in the tracball, nothing, absoluteley nothing happens, just like it wasn't there.

Kasperl. If you haven't reinstalled FS2 Yet can you upload a copy of the FS2 1.0 exe files (both the launcher and exe itself) to Fractux's FTP. A lot of HotU people would find that useful.

Could you not use a good old PS/2 mouse?

i don't really own FS2, i've been using various rips combined for a long time now. i've got about everything except for sparky hi and the cutscenes.
