spaceball 3003

I purchased a used spaceball, version 3003.
How would I get this to work with Solidworks 2005?

Thank You

 

Go to http://www.3dconnexion.com/downlink.asp and download the driver
for your OS and the SWX plugin. When both are installed, in SWX go to
Tools > Addins and enable 3DControl. Then go to View > Toolbar and open
the 3DControl toolbar, which you can use to configure the Spaceball
buttons and motion controls.

It seems they just have one (very large) driver that does all these days..
just to keep things simple I guess.

You're right, all 3 Windows OSs use the same driver. I never noticed that.

 

I've got one. Been using it for a long time. The drivers have kept
getting better.

 

I'm using a 3003 on XP with SW 2004 through 2006. No problems.
