Mouse problems in v15

Post by abk4523 »

I am emulating an Acer 386sx25n with dos 6.22 and have an issue with the mouse. One of my games is telling me I need a Microsoft compatible mouse to run. I have tried the Microsoft ps/2 and Microsoft Intellimouse options with no luck. Any ideas, or am I out of luck? Thanks.

Merely selecting an option in PCem isn't enough. More than that, you need a DOS mouse driver active to use a mouse in plain DOS like that.

Thanks for the replies. CuteMouse looks promising, will it recognize a usb mouse?

There are no USB mouse emulation! Only serial and PS/2.
However, if you have a USB mouse in the host system it will work fine.
