[QUOTE="Jeppe, post: 110393, member: 18435"] Hello Zeus112358. Thank-you for viewing my thread and replying to it. My desktop computer has a PS/2 port, so my problem really is I want to share that port between my old Microsoft Natural keyboard and my Trackman Marble Wheel. What made it (to some extent) work for me was a PS/2 to PS/2 keyboard and mouse splitter (StarTech KYC1MF). Problem is, however, the plug going into the PS/2 port on the motherboard is a somewhat loose fit, so the combined weight of the keybord cord and the mouse cord tend to make the connection unstable. If you can find a good solution to that problem, possibly involving a better quality splitter, I think this solution will work. I would be grateful to hear any ideas from you. Please see my [URL='https://www.windows10forums.com/threads/usb-composite-device-not-recognized-for-long.18449/']related thread[/URL]. The following, too, might interest you: Since you are a CAD designer, I suppose mouse precision is as essential for you as is comfort in handling: Here is a German user report concerning M570 wireless mouse (Saved it a year or so ago, but, unfortunately, cannot google it anymore. I fully agree with the author): "M570 ist für Arm und Schulter sehr schonend, – wie andere Trackballs. Dieser drahtlose Trackball ist deutlich weniger präzise als die früheren, leitungsverbundenen Typen. Die Schalter (besonders derjenige der viel benutzten, linken Maustaste) gehen früher kaputt als die der Vorgängermodelle (z.B. Trackman Marble). Präzision und Schalter-Qualität müssen verbessert werden, Logitech. Leichte Handhabung allein reicht nicht." [/QUOTE]
