    Raw mouse input, can't install platform sdk,

    Visual basic 6.0, XP SP2.
    I'm trying to take input from a USB mouse that's
    NOT the system mouse.
    MSDN claims I can do it with GetRawInputData and related commands.
    But I need to install the platform SDK.
    I downloaded the
    Windows Server 2003 PSDK Full Download with Local Install
    But when I try to install it on XP, the setup program keeps sending
    me back to downlevel.htm telling me I need IE5 or greater.
    I've got IE6. Can't get any further.
    What do I need to do to get the capability to get raw input?
Working...
