Need PC Input Control Panel for PowerComputing

I received a PowerComputing PowerBase 240 without any documetation, and I have been using a PS2 mouse. I just stumbled on information that there was a CP to map the second mouse button on a PowerComputing. I was wondering if anyone had it. Thanks

And now I have that powerbase

And now I have that powerbase :). I think the second button works, though, functioning the same as the other button.

The button doesn't do anything

It is kinda lame. I don'twant to pay for third party control panel if there was a PC brand one that was free.

I've got it.

I've got the original CD software installer (OS 7.6.1) for the Powerbase as well as the manual. I've also got a Newertech 300mhz G3 Daughter card for the Powerbase. I was planning to put them up on eBay soon. Let me know if you're interested.

But you might want to try this:

Scroll down to the bottom--"PS2 to ADB Control Panel." I don't remember if I ever tried that one but it looks like it should work.

Hmm...

When I had my Powerbase and a 2-button PS mouse, I used this

It worked quite well for me.

I was wondering

Hawaii, would you mind emailing me the CP off the disc? That is what I am searching for.
