armaddon Posted May 29, 2004 Share Posted May 29, 2004 so what's the DPI and resolution on the 4.0a like compared to the 3.0? same? my biggest mouse gripe has nothing to do with the mouse, but more with the games that won't recognize the side buttons (argh) ~armaddon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderRiver Posted May 29, 2004 Share Posted May 29, 2004 I have a question, how can you tell which version mouse you have?I have an Microsoft Intellimouse Optical You look at the bottom of your mouse? Mine is Intellimouse Explorer 4.0 (I wonder when 4.0a was released) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CIotzan Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Hello! I just bought my Intellimouse Explorer 4.0 It's a great mouse... extremely ergonomic and very precise. Now I wouldn't use another mouse, even if it's a Logitech :p But... I noticed that I can scroll only in an active window. Unlike other mice I had, now, if I have let's say an explorer window opened and Winamp's playlist on my desktop, I have to click (activate) the window I want to scroll in. Previously I only had to move my cursor from my SELECTED explorer view OVER the playlist to scroll. I found out this feature is called "Universal scrolling" or "Hovering scroll". I would really want to know if some of you know about this and if I could enable it somehow ('caus it's very helpful). P.S. excuse my english :alien: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el22 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Great mouse :) I must live with my Intellimouse Optical 1.1a for now :p (offtopic) Enable ClearType, and set the contrast to 1000. You'll love it. It's ClearTweak. There are many-a-thread about it back a few months ago. Everyone should have ClearType turned on (since Microsoft is making Longhorn require it, but that's for another thread). :rolleyes: Cleartype is enabled, check the screenshots. And who told you it's a requirement for longhorn? Since when a font smoothing setting will be a requirement for a future OS, and since when everyone should use it just because of that reason? :huh: They are just going to improve it for Longhorn, not force it.And, I use cleartype.

axis Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 I JUST got mine in the mail today and it kicks ass. The wheel scrolls so nicely and the shape of it is absolutley perfect. My only problem is the two side buttons, I think they are a little to high for me. I am sure I will get used to it, but this is a nice mouse.

sean l Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 I just picked my up on ebay for $14 dollars. OEM of course. I am pretty sure there was cheaper, but I didnt want to risk it as they might be fakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kupotek Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Yup, that's the one. If you had the problem, you could call Microsoft and they'd send you a brand new 3.0. Like I said above, I did it twice, then fixed the originals. It was awesome. That could be considered theft by some :p At least the way you worded it.

Marduk Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Well I really didn't want to start a new thread on this, that would be a waste of something or another, so whats my options? I don't know how to get an answer on this, its a simple yes or no and it's a warented curiosity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
