It worked. I just added C:\MYDOCU~1\mouse.com to autoexec.bat and restarted the computer. Thank you very much. |

Sebatianos | Well, when you change the Autoxec the old file (in case you wish to return to the previous setting) is saved with a different ending. The Autoexec.bat is the one that is used by the computer to set up DOS and the other one is a backup copy of your previous file. | |

I'll try editing .bat, and if it doesn't work I'll edit .tsh. @Gamefreak: You should try to register. You posted so many times as a guest that I think almost everyone knows you.

Gamefreak | Try to run autoexec.tsh in Dos and you'll see if it works. | |

Thanks Reup and Gregor. Now that I have mouse.com and know that I need to edit autoexec.bat, there is a small problem. Quote:

Simply add the line: MOUSE.COM to your autoexec.bat (you could also use LH MOUSE.COM is you've loaded himem.sys first). Read: this. Especially the section: I want a mouse in DOS! Good luck k: |

simply first you need a driver for your mouse (you can get one which takes up small memory space here on abandonia). It will be a file named mouse.com (or .exe) possibly accompanied by other files. Then you open your autoexec.bat file with a text editor. if oyu have windows that will be notepad, while DOS had "edit" program so you would type in Edit autoexec.bat Anyway once you open the file you simply add mouse.com in last line (or mouse.exe depends on your driver). and save the file. This will basically give your computer a command that it should launch your mouse driver when it boots in dos. A simpler way would be to create a boot disk like the one on abandonia, who should (i think) install the mouse driver as well. Anyway i would have to check my autoexec.bat config on this issue to be more precise, so let us know if you are still having troubles with mouse. |

@Reup: How do I do that ? I've got the file "mouse.com" for my A4 Tech mouse. @Sebatianos: Nope. I'm using PS2. |

Sebatianos | Are you using an USB mouse (I'm not sure for the PS2 port mice), because I think that may be the problem. It could be that your DOS doesn't recognise the mouse at all. | |

Reup | You're sure you've loaded a working mouse driver (MOUSE.COM or something similar) in your autoexec.bat? | |
