Two PC's - both with wireless mice!

[shot2bits]

I have my laptop and my home pc in the same office - the home PC has a wireless keyboard and mouse and the laptop has just a wireless mouse. The mouse for the laptop is controlling both the home PC and laptop! The mouse for the home PC works fine and just controls the one machine. I have tried pressing the button on the receiver with only one mouse in the room on both machines - thought they would only find the one mouse and lock onto it but it doesn't appear to work this way! Any thoughts?

Should be something in the manual about changing frequencies.

Ah, the comedy potential of such a setup.

Seriously though, should just be a simple case of changing the frequency / channel of each mouse as already mentioned by BliarOut.

Look for a "connect" button or similar on the bottom of the mice and give it another try.

Er, yeah - there's a button on the bottom of the mouse / keyboard... I'll get my coat...

Thanks... Rob.

no worries, I didn't realise mine had one until I had a problem.


To steal a line from Nervous, "it's all a part of the service".

I was at in a seminar of sorts once, when this occurred. It was very funny
