    TITLE  :  Installing the mouse driver supplied with Windows 3.1




       INSTALLING THE MOUSE DRIVER SUPPLIED WITH WINDOWS 3.1
       =====================================================

  A common cause of problems with the Borland C++ DOS IDE, is older
  mouse drivers which are not compatible with protected mode
  operation.  Most clone mice will work with a Microsoft driver, so
  by using the Microsoft driver you may be able to solve these
  problems.  If you have Windows 3.1 then you have the version 8.2
  Microsoft mouse driver, however it is not usually installed
  during the Windows installation process.  The driver is on disk 4
  of the Windows installation disks, as the files MOUSE.SY_ and
  MOUSE.CO_.  You can install either the .COM or SYS version
  depending on where you prefer to load your mouse driver.

  To install this version of the mouse driver onto your system,
  insert disk 4 into the floppy drive and type:

       expand a:mouse.sy_ mouse.sys
  or
       expand a:mouse.co_ mouse.com

  The mouse driver can now be installed by either adding the
  following line to your CONFIG.SYS

       device=mouse.sys

  Or by adding this line to your AUTOEXEC.BAT:

       mouse.com

  This assumes that MOUSE.SYS, or MOUSE.COM file resides in the
  root directory.  If it is placed in any other directory, then the
  full path will need to precede the filename.  Be sure to remove
  any other mouse drivers that you were loading in either
  CONFIG.SYS or AUTOEXEC.BAT.

  To re-emphasize, substituting the mouse driver used on your
  system with the latest release from Microsoft will only work if
  your mouse hardware is truly compatible.  Since this can be
  tested quickly, driver substitution may save you the time needed
  to contact either your computer's manufacturer or expense of
  replacing your mouse.
