Is this for ALL types of mice? Particularly optical?

From the description: "SteelSeries 4HD/9HD SteelSeries 4HD and 9HD, differing only in size, consist of a hard plastic composition specifically engineered for professional gamers who demand extremely consistent precision, accuracy and stability. The finely textured surface consists of tens of thousands of light reflecting microscopic points, optimized to enhance the tracking capabilities of next-generation gaming mice. A rubber layer on the back gives the mousepad a steady and firm grip of your desk at all times, so you never have to worry about missing that headshot due to a wobbly surface. Thanks to the sophisticated tracking capabilities of the surface, the user is capable of performing exceptionally precise mouse operations, both in terms of minimal movements as well as high velocity "slingshots". This gaming surface was researched and developed in parallel with the SteelSeries Xai Laser Mouse to ensure that advanced high definition mice fully benefit from this surface." It claims to be made for 'gaming mice' but that is a pretty broad term. Personally, I attempted to use a Razer Naga with it but the mouse would not track at all. Not just bad, or jumpy. It did not work at all.

It's designed for laser mice but you may have some luck with optical mice, particularly "quality" optical mice. Another thing to note is that mice with small friction pads may feel very scratchy on this pad but mice with large PTFE feet work great.

As an optical mouse, you really shouldn't need a mousepad unless you are dealing with a reflective surface or a glass table. If the mousepad is reflective in nature - with any kind of gloss - that will disrupt the operation of the mouse.Try testing the mouse on a few different surfaces to see if you can find one that does work. If you can't get it to work on your shirt, the unit might be defective - however, it is far more likely that your system is slow under load, or that you've picked a poor mousing surface.

I don't see why it wouldn't. Most modern computers have USB ports as well as CD/DVD drives, which is what you'll need to use the mouse. You'll only need the disk they send to install the drivers. Once they're installed, you'll have to configure them to your specifications. However, the driver for the mouse could very well be Windows only. I'd contact the parent company for further compatibility questions, though.

Razer uses the "4G" advertising on a lot of sensors. There's optical, laser, and the optical/laser combo. Laser sensors have inherent acceleration, so I always stick with optical mice. eg, Deathadder, G400

I am currently using a Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 and it is working just fine. This mouse is several years old and may not say it is for a Win 8 OS - but it is certainly compatible with the new OS.

Yes. Just tried it with my optical mouse. Windows installed the driver and recognized it within a minute.

cant say for certain but if a regular mouse will work then I would assume that this will work also. the technology is the same as a regular mouse in that it has the beam of light that projects out of the tip, just like a regular mouse has the beam of light that projects out from the bottom...hope this helps

Thanks, here it is a site that has the last driver as I just find out. It is a genuine website, not like all others sending you around the bushes.Do you know by any chance what's the major difference between an optical mouse and a laser one (beside the price)?As far as I know, it is about the surface they are used, the optical being able to navigate on about everything.ThanksDan

it has the same middle click function as most mice. i am able to map it within games so it should work

it works fine with a laser mouse,I have a naga 2014, with a 8200 bpi laser, it tracks and works beautifully. I would never go back to another mouse surface.

Lol. Yes. They're very sensitive. You can adjust motion sensitivity, though. Mone triggers for insects, so mice shouldn't be an issue.

I'm not sure about a laser mouse. I use an optical mouse at work. It works very well for that purpose.

It's an optical mouse and they don't work well on a translucent surface like glass. Putting something opague over the glass makes it work ok.

I just tried it on a glass jar since I couldn't find anything else. it senses it. I tried it on a fake/plastic glass picture frame it worked fine. these are one if the few mouses I have found that doesn't even have a lazer light shooting out of it. which I thought it did. or it looks like its suppose to. ik forsure the laser ones work work on class or the wood that's been painted over. and I love this mouse.

Oh yeah, thats mostly what I use it for. it works amazing, you can tune the dpi to the speed you want and it fits comfortably. im noticing however that it'll freeze for a second and start to go slow for a second, but I'm not sure if its the mouse or something else

I have used SIIG with a different brand of mouse and does work. If you are switching between 2 pc's then I would recommend this IOGear GCS62HU. I use the SIIG for external drives etc. Good luck.

I'm sorry I can't answer your question. I did not use the mouse as after I got it I found out it was not compatible with Windows Seven operating system. We were looking for a magnifier that worked in a specific area.
