GP2-Mouse & Sndcard Wont Work Together

I am having problems getting a mouse to work in GP2 if my Soundblaster driver is installed. I can boot without sound support and the mouse (serial) works. If I allow the SB drivers to load, the mouse will not work. Makes it difficult to set up the sound card. Also makes it difficult to navigate through menus. I might also mention I have installed "nocdrom" and I am using Pieter's 1997 carset. Does anyone know where I can get some DOS mouse drivers? Maybe I can try several different ones. Is "nocdrom" causing problems? I could run without it, but I prefer not to have to get out the cd every time I want to play. Thanks. Billy Moore

If you run GP2 from a W95 icon, go to properties, program, advanced and enable the mouse option, tho' I use the "use msdos mode as neccessary" mode for mine and this still allows use of my serial mouse. Like you say - it does sound as if you don't have a mouse driver set up in the mode you run it. You should have a mouse driver disk with your mouse when you got it. If not, go to the manufacturesrs web site for your mouse and download their drivers or e-mail them for it. -- To reply, remove NOSMEG from end of e-mail address.
