Well, thanks to Bryan Hodgson <hodgson@EECS.Lehigh.EDU> for some ideas which unfortunately didn't help the problem but he did warn me away from putting in any of the SiS driver updates into the XP machine(!). He was the ONLY person to comment. Turns out updating to patch # 108605-31 and rebooting got things working just fine. That's the ffb Graphics patch. I was at the -23 level and -31 seems to have fixed it. Original message was: ----------------------------- I've installed a SUNpci II pro card in my Sunblade 1000 running Solaris 8, installed Windows XP and SP1 on it, upgraded the Sunpci software to 2.3.2 and run the update drivers script. I'm running it to a window on the SunBlade. The problem is the mouse. Clicks seem to act in ways that are non- obvious. For example, a single click (not click and hold, just a simple click) on the background acts like I'm clicking and holding. I.e. if I click once and then move the mouse it starts making rectangles. Similarly if I click on something (single) and move the mouse it starts to move the object around. Various other bizarre behavior in trying to get single clicks on some buttons to do anything and double clicks seem to require furious clicking to get to work. I've checked various places in the Windows control panels that might actually CAUSE this - there's an option that actually does that - sticky clicks or something - but it's turned off. I even tried turning it on and it oddly made NO difference.... Also, once the pc is booted up to windows the 'attach mouse' key/menu option seems to have no effect. As in nothing happens or changes when you select it or hit the meta-M. Ideas anyone?
