Two pointing devices, Windows 7

Question

I want to connect a mouse and a tablet to the same computer.

I want the mouse's cursor to be separate from the cursor used by the tablet.

Is there a way to make two pointing devices control two separate mouse cursors on Windows 7?

Answer 1

You can try Microsoft's Multipoint . Its basically used in educational institutions to cut down on hardware costs .
Or you can use MultiMouse but they very clearly express that you need more than one machine and is more of a collaborative tool .
I guess Microsoft doesnot pose any such restriction so you can go for it although I think at $139 the price is a bit steep

You can also try Wunderworks (sadly this is paid too ) All these tools allow multiple mouse points , might also work with tablet .
Couldn't find any mention of any other input devices besides mouse and keyboard though.

Answer 2

Perhaps TeamPlayer software would suit your needs.
