Question about Belkin MiniScroller Mouse
I am trying to use this usb mouse on a laptop running windows 98. When Windows tries to update the drivers it says insert cd installation disk which I do not have. (Pawn shop laptop) The three files called for are hidclass.sys, hidparse.sys and hidusb.sys. I have downloaded these from the net but Windows will not read them from the floppy. Windows cannot complete the mouse install because it can't find the drivers. Is there another required file needed to recognize those drivers and install them? Thanks for your help DM
I would look for the whole driver package from http://www.driverguide.com If you have the files downloaded why are they on the floppy? You can point the installation to any location, including the hard drive of the laptop. Driver guide does require a (free) membership to download, but it's a great site.

Thanks for your help. The laptop is not my main computer and not on the internet. I am not sure moving the files from the floppy drive to the hard drive will act any different but worth a try. I got the three files in question from driverguide.com , I will look for a complete driver package, maybe it has something I am missing. I just downloaded the three files that windows keeps asking for during the update.
thanks again

Thanks Shayna.. Got it working ok. Just needed a couple of more files that made up the driver package.
Appreciate your time to help out.
