Which games did require this error to be set ? I seem to remember some hacks
around this but I do not remember if it was an error added in the
GetDeviceData function or an error removed somewhere because it relied on
getting something even if not acquired...

I will try a test application when I have access to my Windows development
machine to get the error code :-)

dlls/dinput/mouse.c - GetDeviceState

[James Dean Anderson]

again, I'm sorry if messages appear twice...

says it should return this error. btw GetDeviceData in mouse.c returns 
this errorcode as well. WWII-Online (you can get it from 
www.playnet.com) needs it.
