windows 8 64bits spacemouse pro

Post by piru »

Anyone has issues on windows 8 64bits?
Cant get spacemouse pro to be detected, using latest drivers

Tried other OS and works fine, starting driver does nothing and stopping says "driver not running"
Any ideas?

Hi piru,

Your SMPro ought to work just fine with the latest driver on Windows 8 32-bit or 64-bit. The latest software version for your device is 3.16.2 and is available from the download page here.

Open the system's Device Manager and check if you see a new item being added to the "Human Interface Devices" category when you plug the device to a different USB port. The SMPro is displayed as "HID-compliant device" with a "hardwared Id" of "SB\VID_046D&PID_C62B" (more details on how to identifiy your 3D mouse available here).
