Slik Stik Tornado Spinner doesn't work in DOS - UPDATE saved by Oscar Controls!
maraxle:
Well, Slik Stik got back to me a couple of hours ago. They told me to try using it in Windows instead. The spinner does seem to work on my Windows machine, but my cabinets don't, and won't, use Windows.
Has anybody gotten one of these things to work in DOS? It says on their website that you can, so I wasn't expecting problems like this...

before I purchased one, I ask him if it works in pure DOS w/Cutemouse and replied YES, so I bought one and find out that it did not work for pure DOS so instead of bitching, I just hack it (story above) and made it into serial.
When I loaded the driver and run EDIT, the mouse don't want to move at all.

I'm in the same boat you are. When I eventually go back to DOS, I don't want this to happen to me.
Here is a pretty thorough document describing a mouse hack.

Building my own kind of defeats the purpose of buying this thing. I don't like that they advertised that this thing is DOS-compatible, when it clearly isn't. Now they have stopped responding to emails as well. So not impressed, and out $90...

Have you tried USB with the bios "usb legacy support"?
