Comment: My wife bought a brand new M$ Wireless Optical Mouse 5000. The package had the impressive Certified for Windows Vista logo displayed on the front, back & both sides. I inserted the IntelliPoint CD that came with it into the DVD drive. The very first thing that came up is the usual UAC permission dialog. That's fine but then the next thing that showed up on the screen is the biggest surprise of all: This Program has known compatibility Issues! I told myself - this MS packaging is very brand new and the CD itself (Version 5.3) isn't! I managed to fix it by downloading IntelliPoint version 6.1 that should have been shipped with the mouse for Vista! Use this post as a reminder to be extremely careful when you buy something from Redmond. i_XpUser

Reply: (edit)This Program has known compatibility Issues! XpUser, Lol, that's the funniest thing I've heard today. What a surprise! Man, that's to much. Never know what's going to be inside a Vista logo package or even a Vista logo computer for that matter.

Reply: (edit)It's almost like you seeing a Vista sticker on new pc that has only 512mb RAM with intergrated graphics. You need at least at least 1.5gb of ram to run it ok for just generel task with intergrated graphics.
