Yes, a bit slower than on a real computer but it will

Ok, the setup is here: http://phoco.net/__Bin/MWIProSetup.zip

I've installed it 3 times, and everytime I try to run it, I get this error.

The never ending story...

Don't know why, but the fourth time was a charm. It works. However, "I" can't get it to work now...
From what I read, when I pressed the mouse wheel, the pop up window should show, but it doesn't. So, I right click the sys tray icon, and select show. Now, the mouse wheel should turn the letters for example, but it doesn't do anything.
The pop up window only shows briefly when I quit configure.

Open the configuration and set UseMouseHook to true and UserFrodoComm and UsePowerMate to false, then restart it.

Have a look into the WMI description, might help on questions like this: http://zhorvat.dyndns.org/PCForums/S...spx?PostID=914

Hey Zorro, look what you made me do: a new armrest, with a future integrated mouse in there, runing MWI

Doesn't look much now, but you got me working.

I love that idea... looks like a pretty nice PowerMate replacement.
Let us see more pictures as soon as you have some

Thanks Zorro. Belive me, you got me thinking with your application, and got to work imediatlly as I came up with the ideea.
That button was made by me , with a little imagination(you wouldn't believe if if I told you out of what...) It really looks a lot better in reality. When finished, it won't be that tall. I'll put an inverted mouse in there, so I can use its wheel and button. I'll finish up in a few days.

I'll post more pics soon as I make them with a real camera, this was made with the phone...

In that pic you can see a small display that will also be integrated in the armrest, showing the outside&inside temp, and the useless time&date.

After running MWI for a few times, when trying to start it, that error came again...

I'm sure you made Brave thinking how he will refactor his solution

Strange thing with that error. I'll have a look at it.

He sure did..
I have this MMI style rotary encoder install - details on my todosomeday list

Didn't do it yet and went for this, http://www.bravellir.com/wordpress/?p=36 as a temporary replacement, because the alps encoder is not that easy to get here..
