[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Optical mouse on Mac fx

bwild@foxi.uka.de (Bernd Wild) (03/20/91)

After a lot of trouble with my first fx (3 substitutions of 
the motherboard) I ran into new problems when using an optical
A+ ADB mouse. Everything works fine as long as you don't move the
mouse into the menu bar and press a key (e.g. to reach the Clean Up
menu item in Special). Then, the mouse dies immediately. The mouse
comes back to live when you change the optical one against the original
Apple mouse.
Technical support here said something about the abnormous speed of
an fx which isn't compatible with the optical mice!?!
Any ideas?
