There is only one device in the SYSTEM | DEVICE MANAGER | MOUSE.
It is a PS/2 Port Mouse, reporting no conflicts, CMMOUSE.VXD and VMM32.VXD (VMMOUSE.VXD)
on IRQ 12 with "use automatic settings."
I did all of what you said when I got the Manufacturers latest drivers.
This thing has a Purple PS\2 plug to the computer for the Keyboard with another USB
wire spliced to it. That second USB wire is plugged into a green PS\2 mouse adapter
plug that goes into the green circular PS\2 socket next to the purple PS\2 Keyboard
socket.
In other words - both go into the normal PS\2 sockets....
I would say that what is happening is that whatever software has control usurps the
mouse program at times and sends the cursor 'elsewhere.'
Could this be an "Interupt" problem?
