SpaceBall 4000FLX, WIN-XP

(OP)
SpaceBall 4000FLX - driver 3DxSoftware_v2-6-5.exe
WIN-XP - SP 2
SolidWorks 2006 - SP 3.0

We installed these drivers & plugged in the SpaceBall. It beeps twice, but when opening the 3DXware Control panel I get an error message: NO 3D MOTION CONTROLLER COULD BE DETECTED
Also get the same error when opening SolidWorks.
The ADD-IN for 3D MOTION CONTROL is selected.
None of the demos will run.

The only recent change to my PC was an upgrade from WIN 2000 to WIN XP. Since then... I get the error message.

It works on a different PC.

We're going to see if we have a serial mouse or keyboard to see if my port is bad.

Other than that - any ideas whet to try next?
