A previous poster complained that when using the mouse driver provided by Microsoft for his/her Logitech mouse, the system locked up. The readme file with win3.0 states that the files on the diskettes are compressed. A compressed driver may indeed lock up the system. Use win's expand.exe to uncompress files from their diskettes. Expand itself is not compressed, but is also not auto-copied to /windows during setup. The Logitech Bus Mouse Driver is compatible with the MS Mouse Driver. -- Joe Wasik - PacBell, 2600 Camino Ramon, 4e750, San Ramon, CA 94583 415-823-2422 jwas@PacBell.COM or {att,bellcore,sun,ames,pyramid}!pacbell!pbhyf!jwas "Consitution, ...

If you are referring to my post, what I said was that the mouse (Logitech Hi-Rez bus) worked fine under WINDOWS with the WINDOWS driver (MS Mouse is the correct driver for this mouse), but didn't work under Ventura ever after. The solution was to remove the WINDOWS driver from CONFIG.SYS and reinstall the Logitech driver. Since the WINDOWS driver was installed by WINDOWS, and worked under WINDOWS, there is no question of it having been compressed.
