3DComm Spaceball 5000

Post by Rgpracer »

Windows XP operating system.
Just got this 3DComm Spaceball 5000 from a guy, no software, downloaded the latest from the 3DComm site. Said that it installed but will not work. Just a switchology problem I'm sure. Using it on Catia V5 at home.
Any suggestions?
Oh, by the way, GREAT SITE.
Thanks in advance.

Which Spaceball 5000 did you purchase, Serial or USB?
Serial is a legacy so support on newer apps may not identify the device.
Which driver did you download?
Did you check and see if the demo work?
Catia is a natively supported application and should identify the device as long as the 3D driver is running.
