I am having great troubles with Logitech pilot mouse.Mouse is
connected to COM2.When I try to run Windows 3 there is a mouse
pointer but it doesn't work,I mean that the mouse pointer doesn't
move.My computer is 386 and I have a modem connected to COM1.
I am using Logitech serial mouse driver.There is nothing wrong
with the mouse because it works fine with other programs such as
Turbo C++ and WP5.1.So if you have any ideas about my problem
please reply because I am getting desperate.
Thanks
Aapo Rautiainen

We have the same setup and we could not get a Logitech serial mouse to work until we used the Logitech driver in the CONFIG.SYS (i.e. DEVICE=MOUSE.SYS /2). Also, check to make sure that the COM ports are set up correctly; for example, if you have a serial/parallel card with two COM ports, disable COM1 and setup your modem as COM1:. I hope this helps!

I have a logitech mouse & windows.. works great. Ya have ta put the mouse into MicrosoftMouse mode before entering windows.. that is the default state after power-on, anyway. If you have the CLICK thingie installed, edit CLICK.SRC and add/modify an entry for WIN to use MM mode (see your logitech docs for more info). -- ___Mark S.

I have a Logitech mouse and had lots of trouble using it with Windows when I installed Windows last summer. We upgraded to version 4.10 of the Logitech driver back then and haven't had any trouble since. -- Wayne Hauber | (515) 294-9890 Programming Consultant/BITNET Inforep | ga.wjh@isumvs.bitnet Iowa State University Computation Center | wjhauber@iastate.edu

Two solutions for that: Either install the mouse.com driver in your autoexec.bat file that seems to take care of the DOS access problem. I had the same problem whe I was using the old windows lmouse.drv. Or: Get the v5.00 software disk from Logitech, which includes a special Logitech windows driver. Then you won't have the above problem. Vince
