My goal is straightforward: to read motion and button input from the Spaceball and translate that into virtual joysti...

Spaceball 5000 Serial Plug and Play is Hyperactive

I have a Spaceball 5000 Serial device. It works perfectly well using the installked 2.8.2 drivers. I've also installed the SolidWorks plug-ins from 3.5.6. This works fine too. However, recently I seem to have screwed up my Windows XP Pro installation while *trying* and failing to install Adobe RoboH...
