The problem is that if DESQview is configured to use the mouse without the driver, then the driver is loaded in order to use some other program that needs the driver (ALA Mahjongg Game), then DESQview loses the use of the mouse after that even if the window with the driver is closed. I have found that I don't use the mouse with DESQview (keyboard interface is faster for me) but use of the mouse.sys driver allows both DESQview and other programs to use the mouse fine. -- Don Reese reese@pdn.UUCP | Eney Meeny, Jelly Beanie, Paradyne Corporation uunet!pdn!reese | the spirits are about to 8550 Ulmerton Road Mail Stop LF-207 | speak. - Bullwinkle Moose Largo, FL 34641-3893 Phone: (813) 530-8361 | -------------------------
