Vista - Mouse wrapping

Mouse wrapping

Not sure if this is the correct board to put this thread in...

I remember many years ago, I had mouse drivers that supported "mouse wrapping". That was where if you pushed your cursor all the way to the left on your screen, it would "wrap" over to the far right side of the screen, and vice-versa.

Anyone know if there is a way to get this under Vista? Either with a registry key / driver setting or via some utility?

Thanks!

Re: Mouse wrapping

I think that you can google some free progs which will perform such action with the mouse.
As far as i know, in the registry there is no key to do so.
What mouse are you using ? standard ?

it ttried it and i think it's what you want but i'm using dual monitors and it doesn't work right...but if you have a single monitor set up it should work fine.

Re: Mouse wrapping

I am using dual monitors, too. In fact, that is specifically why I wanted such an ability; when your desktop is 3360x1050, going from one end of the screen to the other takes a while - even with pointer-acceleration.

My mouse is the one in the Microsoft Laser Desktop 6000, so I'm using the Intellimouse drivers.
