need a new mouse for A1200

[ElZorro]

Houston, we have got a problem!

I mean, the mouse is not working correctly anymore.
During the use in games, I get the hick-ups mouse syndrome.
It takes to long to get the pointer at the right spot!
I cleaned it several times, but the problem stays
It is time for a new mouse!

Where in Holland, The Netherland, Pays Bas, Ollande, can I get one?
Computercity.biz is out of the air, the site is not on internet available lately....
Amiges or Amigis has one for A500 or A2000, but does it work with the A1200?
I don't know for sure, who does has one working type for A1200 left to help a Miggy dude?

I am intrested in your reactions,

Gr. Frisby :-?

for future just buy a cornholio mouseadapter with that you can use any ps2 "pc" mouse and even those usb ones with a ps2 adapter supplied ,, nothing like a good optical one if you know what i mean ..

and all amiga mouse work with 1200 as far as i know ... the same with the 500 and 2k

You can also use a standard pc mouse using a cheap adapter. I believe amigakit sells these.

Edit: I really should learn to read the other replies before replying myself  :-P

Hi El Zorro,

Check the images, I have just fitted an adaptor to use PS2 mice, works perfectly :-D

[ElZorro]

Cheap mouse you say?
13 GBP is about 16 or 17 euro, right?

Cheap adapter?
27 GBP is 35 euro, correct?

Hey,
If you're good at building stuff with electronics, you could always convert a old PC mouse to a amiga mouse - look at the Wizard schematic on www.ianstedman.co.uk.

Shouldn't be too difficult if you use the original board with its opto sensors and microswitches extended off to the above circuit (Remove the original IC first, though).

Hi, I'd recommend the Cocolino. Bought one from AmigaKit (who posted above) about a month ago and just really wish i'd got one sooner! I use it with a USB->PS2 and an optical mouse so never again will I suffer a jittering or stuttering mouse :-D

At my house :-)
I've got a brand new (well, never been used actually - it's pretty old really) mouse lying around. Check PM.

This made me laugh so hard my colleagues thought I instantly went insane :lol:

[keropi]

the best solution is a cocolino... get that and use a nice optical mouse with scrollwheel...

[Hyperspeed]

Probably best to avoid one of those...
