Hi,

I use to play games in DOS a lot, and knew everything there was to know. Unfortunately that knowledge has passed from me (due to too many windows ) and I have returned to all these amazing old DOS games and wish to play them again. I downloaded the boot disk from this site, and it works fine, however I only have a USB mouse, therefore the standard mouse driver won't work. I have downloaded a USB mouse driver for DOS but it uses up way too much memory, most games won't run (they need more memory). I suppose the simplest solution is to get a PS2 mouse, but other than that can anyone offer me any help, tips, solutions?

I run WIN ME on a PIII 800mhz. DosBox runs games but slowly (particulary protected mode games I believe). Windows only runs games that it chooses. Starting with a DOS boot disk seems to be only/best solution.

Thank you in advance for any help/advice,

Dan
