Put the mouse into the COM adapter, put the keyboard into the PS/2 port. Then, run 'msetyp.exe' from my mouse drivers download in the utilities section. Set it for serial. Then, add: X:\(Path)\MOUSE.COM to your AUTOEXEC.BAT, where X is the drive you saved it in, and PATH is where you saved the drive...

of course! I don't have any ideas. If I did, I could probably make SUBs/FUNCTIONs, but this is quicker and less strain on my little brain. :P

I can't find it for download either.

It says that it was abandoned in 1995 when MACs became 32-bit and had compatibility problems. You can still buy it though. It will NOT work on G3, G4, or G5 MACs at all.

I will post a download in the Utilities section with MS-DOS mouse drivers. It will also include a program, "msetyp.exe", which will changes the files to make your mouse work with a serial or PS2 port. :arrow: UPDATE: The file is now available for download, tell me if it works :arrow: And, ...

Well, finally, I may have an answer! Nathan, if you are using an MS-DOS Mouse Driver (MOUSE.COM), search for your MOUSE.INI (or .sys, I don't remember.) and edit it (EDIT MOUSE.INI). Where it says type=ps2, switch the ps2 to serial1. Exit and restart your laptop with the keyboard in the PS2 port and...
