It looks like it doesn't but I need the answer too so I'll keep looking. Thanks for asking this, hope someone finds the answer. It looks like this link may hold the answer but I can't check it out right now. I guess the 8000 will work whatever that is. Be back later, Jamie. http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/windows7/support.mspx which I got from this google search: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=Will++the+Microsoft+Wireless+Notebook+Optical+Mouse+3000+from+HP+work+with+Windows+7%3F&btnG=Google+Search&rlz=1R2GGLL_enUS351&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=

I dont know. I know it doesn't work with Windows 7. I had to buy another mouse. I suggest you do that too

This bluetooth mouse only requires your laptop to have bluetooth capability. However, I found this to be an unworkable solution as it would not connect to my Windows 7 computer. So maybe you might wanna try one of the more reputable mice. Pay a bit more for the reliability. That solution worked for me.

Hi, it works just fine with Windows 8, Windows 8.1, and Windows 7. I have lots of wireless mice and generally prefer those over corded ones. But this mouse is so smooth, I often use it instead of my cordless mouse both at work and at home. The documentation is a little sparse, so if when you are using it you don't find an answer there, check the online help for the Brookstone Scan Mouse, they are identical and Brookstone's documentation is a little more thorough.

Im running windows 7 and it worked good, but it just died out on me three days ago, for the money I wont complain but the receiver inside the mouse went fairly quick.

I have win7 but i don't know why it wouldn't work with any windows. It works just like any other wireless mouse or keyboard.

No clue...honestly, I haven't used this item since purchasing it. I would assume as long as the computer recognizes the wireless dongle whatever port its plugged into, it should work. But why you wouldn't prioritize a more local USB port to a mouse and use this device for more external type devices doesn't make sense.

I am using this mouse on both my home and work laptops - Windows 8 & Windows 7 respectively. So far - no problems!!!

Yes, it works with Microsoft. However, I would advise going with a different mouse because the battery life on this mouse is so short. I was finding myself having to change the batteries on it about every 5 days, when with my prior mouse I would change it every couple of months. But to only answer your question, yes it does work with Windows.

I'm using this mouse right now - - and it's installed on a Windows 7 machine.Just plug it in, and let Windows find the drivers.

Windows 8 sucks anyways....why would you waste your money in the first place?? that's your own fault. I've had this mouse for 2 years now for College, and I've never had problems with my Samsung Windows 7 Laptop. This includes using the mouse anywhere that has wifi, not just @ home. get a pc that works and MOST of all DONT use Windows 8. simple fix

I am using Windows 7. But, this mouse is simple plug and play so there should be no problem. I have used similar mouse with Windows 8.1 with no problems.

The dongle or wireless usb insert must be used in order for the Microsoft 5000 Mouse to be seen by your system. Just plug the small wireless atapter into any USB port and restart the Computer. Give it a monment or two for the drivers to be read, once your pointer moves it is installed. Ciao . . Sal

I haven't tested this with windows 7. But I would be surprised if it did not work. Most of the time, Linux is much more difficult to get things working. This is basically a wireless mouse that can to other things. Works great with XBMC.
