By chance, earlier today, I mentioned to a computer literate friend
that I could not get my 302A USB to connect to any PC computer. *
When I try it the mouse pointer just jumps about all over the place. *
He suggested that I should disable Windows Intellimouse because it
sounds as if the the PC is thinking that the 302A is a mouse. *I
have not had a chance to try this yet.

John, that will probably do it. I am using a laptop that does not have
a USB mouse.
