Every once in a while I have to hit the bottom button on the 5L to clear it but I'm pleased with the results. I got mine the first week in January (belated Christmas from my wife <G>). I was leary about buying it because of the messages I'd read about driver problems. Sure glad I have it now. I think I installed it using the Control Panel in WinOS/2 but am not quite certain. Good luck. If I can get the 5L working you surely can.
