From memory this should be resolved on the W2K box by forcing the Plug and Play to relook for devices. &nbsp;Afraid I don't have access to give you a detailed description on how to do it. &nbsp;There should be a plug and play device icon in the system tray but you can also get to the same thing through control panel. &nbsp;Used to have a similar problem with a modem.

Do you have the RTM version. I had the same problem when I run the RC3 candidate but with the RTM version this problem is gone..<br />
<br />
The only thing you can do is in the hardware device manager rescan for new device and the simple cancel is the mouse is found.<br />

I have a switch box sharing for the PCs a mouse, monitor and keyboard.<br />
<br />
When I change the manual switch from PC A (running Win2000 Prof) to PC B (running NT 4 WS) and back (to PC A), the mouse isn't working any more within Win2000 Prof.<br />
<br />
Is there a way to solve this ?<br />
A &quot;refresh&quot; of devices ?<br />
<br />
Thank you for your answers !<br />

Win2000 switchbox problem

Windows 2000 is an operating system for use on both client and server computers. It is the successor to Windows NT 4.0, and is the last version of Microsoft Windows to display the "Windows NT" designation. Four editions of Windows 2000 were released (Professional, Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server) that shared a core set of features, including many system utilities such as the Microsoft Management Console. All versions of the operating system support NTFS 3.0, Encrypting File System, as well as basic and dynamic disk storage. The Windows 2000 Server family includes support for Active Directory services, Distributed File System and fault-redundant storage volumes.
