Computer Locks up when have Microsoft Opticalwheel Mouse p..

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

I made a mistake and loaded Intellipoint 4.1 when I installed the new mouse.
The computer gets to the Windows XP screen with the scrolling bar, and locks
up at that point. If I unplug the USB or S/P mouse prior to starting the
computer, it will then load properly. Once I reach the desktop, I plug in the
mouse and it works fine. I have tried Logitec too, which also locks up the
computer. I am thinking that the Intellipoint did something to the registry.
I installed the most current version of Intellipoint, which did not help.

You can boot to xp cd,recovery,press enter key for password,typeisable /?
That gets you cmds,or simply typeisable Then disable intellipoint.Type:
EXIT To terminate recovery.4.1 maybe older software,but its still good to
use,
i think you might have other issues,try tapping F8 at starting
computer,select
safe-mode with networking,open xp in administrative capacity,in xp chk event
viewer to see whats taking place.
