3. My computer has 2 sound cards—which one should be connected to
MouseCaster?
On my computer there is a sound card that is part of the motherboard, and
another one installed separately. Which sound card should I connect to?
Some computers have one sound card built into the motherboard and an additional one
installed separately. You should use the same sound card to which the speakers are
connected. Plug MouseCaster into the LINE-IN on this card. If the LINE-IN on this card is
already in use, you may connect the MouseCaster to the second sound card instead.
Note
: You must specify which sound card MouseCaster is connected into. After starting
the MouseCaster program, refer to the MouseCaster User Manual, System Icon
Description. Follow the instructions for setting the sound card properties, selecting
the sound card that the MouseCaster is connected to.
4. I don’t have a LINE-IN port in my computer.
I have a laptop and there is no LINE-IN, just an
OUT
to the speakers and
an
IN
for the microphone.
On some laptops there is no LINE-IN. In this case, connect the MouseCaster to the
microphone port and specify this option to the software
(see Note in question 3 above)
.
Note
: Connecting to the microphone port may cause a decrease in sound quality and is
dependent upon the quality of the sound card.
5. The mouse doesn’t move.
I replaced my old mouse with MouseCaster and the cursor on the screen does
not move.
MouseCaster is a Microsoft-compatible mouse. After replacing your existing mouse,
you must reboot the computer to enable the operating system to recognize the new mouse.
If after reboot the computer still does not recognize the MouseCaster mouse, turn off your
computer, unplug MouseCaster and reconnect it to the PS/2 or USB port.
6. The mouse is jumping around.
I connected MouseCaster to the PS/2 port and the cursor is jumping all around
the screen, opening programs and documents, and I cannot control it.
MouseCaster is a Microsoft-compatible mouse. Verify that the mouse driver
installed in your computer is a Microsoft PS/2-compatible mouse.
To check or change the mouse driver definition, perform the following:
1.
Click on the
Start Button > Control Panel >
2.
Look for the
Mouse
icon and double-click to enter Mouse Settings.
