Problem

Solutions: Problem
A customer was using a MicroSoft Mouse version 5.03 that was set up through MOUSE.COM. The mouse functioned correctly while in Setup but would quit working after he exited to a document screen.

Answer
We have had a similar problem here in house with bus mouse. If the mouse being used has a bus card, the user might want to try having changing the IRQ jumper. For us, the problem was a conflict with the network card.

There are 4 positions for the IRQ jumper - 2,3,4, or 5 (usually). 2 and 3 are used for COM ports, if they exist, and that leaves 4 and 5 to use. What we have done to find the problem here, was to try one jumper at a time until the mouse worked correctly everywhere. (I ended up with IRQ4 on the two.)

(The user this problem originated with corrected the problem by changing the second position on the jumper (the factory default was position one).
