Re: XP does not recognize Logitech corded 3buttons PS2 mouse

Why cannot Microsoft be more tolerant of
other manufacturers and let their drivers be installed through the Device
Driver Update procedure without worrying about the INF file or Logitech be
more sensible and provide an INF file?

Beacuse, as can be seen by the size of the Logitech .exe file, it installs a
lot more than just drivers. It install a decent mouse configuration program,
in addition to other goodies (wanted or not). It need an honest install
program to do this.

You can extract the .exe file to a temp folder and then direct the mouse
driver update to the appropriate Windows XP folder that was created during
the extract process. Only the drivers will be installed. BUT, you won't have
the mouse configuration program to use.
