I am old! Evidently my computer is old too! I just received this mouse and find that it is not compatable with my hp desk top. Any suggestions? ms

So am I [67]- but have you tried asking HP - try a text message on their website - HP or HPusa.com; this gives you a better chance of someone there replying - their Phone people are slow or non-responsive. Sorry - my HP is a newer tiny Windows one, but it has no disk drive, so everything must be added by SD card or downloaded online. I'm assuming you have a usb port that you connected it to. Just read some other replies. Found an answer, huh. Great, Good luck Margaret. Frank

It says it is compatible with Windows Vista, XP and 7. What are you running. It works fine with my Windows Vista and on my other computer, Windows 8.1.

Hi Margaret, Mr. Bowen asked an important question. Can you post up what system your using it on.

I no longer use it as it interferes with my mobile phone that are all over the house. Back to the old mouse. That said, I loved it, batteries didn't last long, as I kept forgetting to turn it off. Check with your phone or other devices to ensure that they don't knock each other out. My phone would have to be 50' away from the computer and not an option, as it's my office. HOpe this helps.

I am not a computer expert. All I know is that this is the old fashioned mouse that you just stick in and it works. It is a simple pin that just sticks into the back of the computer where the mouse icon is. (If you don't have any mouse icon on the back of the computer with a round hole then most likely it is not compatible. For such an old computer I can't say for sure. For sure, there is no Software required to install the mouse. For just a few bucks it may be worth a try. We have Dell computers 10 years old that the mouse works just fine with.

I'd get a different product. There's a chance that it'll work fine for you, but if it doesn't work, it's a real pain to fix. I ended up having to reinstall the entire operating system in order to get the thing up and running. May as well spring for a newer model.The actual problem was most likely a conflict with leftover bits of Logitech drivers and software, but I was never able to track them all down and eliminate them.

Hello A. Keller, Thanks for your interest! After researching it on HP website, it seems like it is NOT compatible with a Mac depending on the OS you are running. We recommend you look it up online before you buy and make the determination.

Uhm, you might want to try giving your computer some time to find the driver in order to use your keyboard and mouse, also I believe u need to plug it into a USB 3.0 slot, not sure about that though. I also believe that this ISNT compatable with windows 8. but im not sure on that either.

It sh sould connect directly to the computer that you are using or product with out interference of the keyboard. Now how the mouse works is a different story. It looks good and sounds good but how it actually performs is totally different. Let me just say the mouse acts like its possessed. It starts doing other things you dont want it to do. The touch sensitivity needs alot of work . Maybe next version will work better.

I don't think it is compatible with anything...the one I got did not work at all!!! I sent it right back. Spend $20 more and get a good Microsoft or Logitech mouse. That is what I did.

No. It is supposed to be a working mouse. If you haven't already, try turning it off and back on. Like you would reboot your own computer. If that doesn't work, tHere must be a broken wire or bad solder somewhere in the mouse wire or connections. I would call vtech customer service or Amazon for resolution. Unfortunately, my grandson loved his laptop to destruction.

I have a Toshiba Compaq Presario, with an Intel processor. I don't see why this mouse would not work, but it is not wireless. I am not computer savvy, but your best bet would be to make a phone call to your local computer store or office-supply store's computer staff. You should get a quick answer. Sorry I couldn't help, but this is what I do in a bind. Happy holidays. V. Price.

I'm using this mouse right now - - and it's installed on a Windows 7 machine.Just plug it in, and let Windows find the drivers.

How old is your mouse? I had the same problem with my HP Comfort mouse. HP Wireless Comfort Mobile Mouse (Moonlight)After 2 1/2 years the mouse died. To be more precise, it is very erratic. The pages that I'm on go all over the place, up and down and back up at any time. Time to start using the spare one I purchased...

the point is not the computer you have but which mouse. you see not all Ps/2 mice are alike nor are all similarly conformed adapters. Many people find that these do not work. You are safer and more likely to save money, frustration and be happier with the resultant mouse if you just buy you a new mouse.

I just downloaded the software but didn't install it.Ordered the touchpad,I will be using it for a desktop which I would hope doesn't make a difference. Already have a Logitech wireless mouse which works well with the desktop,didn't have to install anything for that. Thanks for the info Ata.

Give it up dude. I searched and searched for a printer that would work with ME and finally gave up and bought a new computer. I did find and purchase an older version HP printer that said it would work with ME on the box but HP had withdrawn the drivers from their website, so I took it back. Go buy a new computer. (ME never did anything but suck anyway.)

I had the same problem but I had two sets of Bornd silent mice. I had the wrong mouse with the wrong USB connector. Just ensure you have the correct matchup.If you lose the USB connector the mouse won't work with another. It's a set that matches.

This bluetooth mouse only requires your laptop to have bluetooth capability. However, I found this to be an unworkable solution as it would not connect to my Windows 7 computer. So maybe you might wanna try one of the more reputable mice. Pay a bit more for the reliability. That solution worked for me.
