SpaceMouse Compact not working

Post by Sp101297 »

Hi,

I just recieved my space mouse compact. I downloaded the drivers from the website but when plugged into my pc the lights don't come on and the device doesn't work.

I'm able to find the device in device manager but it gives the message "windows usb device descriptor request failed".

I've tried the device on another computer (a mac) and it worked as expected.

Not sure what to try so any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Sam.

Hi Sp101297,

I would assume this error message was encountered or listed in Device Manager indicating the device is not being recognized by your machine.
There's multiple fixes for this issue and you could check these links I've attached for your below:

What's your 3DxWare driver version? Plug the 3D mouse at first, then install the driver with administrator privilege.
