Help! We have two 386i/250's and one of them has a totally spastic mouse response inside a DOS window. I know that the mouse response in DOS is sluggish in general, but since we have two systems here we can verify that DOS mouse behavior in one of them is definitely pathological. Cursor movement is in two or three inch jerky jumps on the screen, and the cursor jump direction is almost purely random (i.e. unrelated to direction mouse is being moved). We have swapped out hardware (mouse and mouse pad) and software (Microsoft Mouse driver) to no avail. Sun hotline has been no help on this problem. The mouse works fine in Sun mode, but mouse cursor goes into Mexican jumping bean emulation in DOS mode. Programs that need a DOS mouse are unuseable. We are running 4.0.1, but also saw the problem on 4.0. Thanks for any suggestions. Alfred Hartmann MCC - Austin, Texas Voice (512) 338-3423 FAX (512) 338-3888 alfred@mcc.com
