Visual basic 6.0, XP SP2.
I'm trying to take input from a USB mouse that's
NOT the system mouse.
MSDN claims I can do it with GetRawInputData and related commands.
But I need to install the platform SDK.
I downloaded the
Windows Server 2003 PSDK Full Download with Local Install
But when I try to install it on XP, the setup program keeps sending
me back to downlevel.htm telling me I need IE5 or greater.
I've got IE6. Can't get any further.
What do I need to do to get the capability to get raw input?
