winxp sp2 and A4tech 2wheel usb mouse

I have seen many problems like this recently with SP2. I'll suggest the
same thing here. Download and install the latest chipset drivers for
your motherboard. These can be downloaded here:

Oh yes I managed to get the mouse to work with XP SP2 by using the USB
