I have a Logitech Mouse (not the HiRez) and have configured it in 
DV as Number 3 on the Mouse menu in SETUP DesqView running through
Com2. No changes to IRQs or anything else. It works like a champ.
In fact, Applications such as Autocad, Ventura PUblisher, etc all
recognize the mouse and talk to it.

On the other hand, when I used the driver, I would get retransmits
on background data transfers for each click of the mouse. Ever since
I used the 'No. 3' setting I have not seen that problem.

PS: My com2 is on a separate I/O card.
