Problem Resolved

Hi Robert, You're a star - reinstalling VE using the link you provided sorted it. It's strange as the re-installed version looks to be the same as the previous version, and I was seeing the same behaviour on two different machines. It's now working as expected on both XP and Vista though, so this th...

Hi Robert,

Sorry, my typo - I missed out the crucial "no", i.e. there were definitely no instances of Internet Explorer running under any user account at the time the driver was restarted.

Cheers,

Hi Robert, I've now tried with the driver loading automatically at boot, and also ensuring that there are IEXPLORE.EXE instances in Task Manager (or IEUSER.EXE instances on Vista) before restarting the driver, but still no joy.

Hi Robert, Thanks for the suggestion, but it's the 3D view that I'm having problems with. It's almost like the Space Navigator driver doesn't recognise that the VE 3D control is loaded in memory. I've just tried an XBox 360 wired controller and was able to control VE with no issues, so I'm reasonabl...

Space Navigator Not Working in Microsoft Virtual Earth

Hi,

Just a bit more info... I've noticed that whilst Google Earth appears in the application list in the 3Dconnexion control panel when it's running, Virtual Earth never appears in the list.

Space Navigator Not Working in Microsoft Virtual Earth

Hi, I recently purchased a Space Navigator but am having problems getting it to work with Microsoft Virtual Earth. I've installed the driver on both an XP and Vista machine, with no joy on either.
