Using the MOUSE7PT.EXE Program
The MOUSE7PT.EXE program creates an additional mouse
driver which you can then load for any program that has trouble
controlling the cursor. Your original mouse driver remains
unchanged.
Note
If you are using Microsoft Windows 3.0, you do not need to
install this program to patch the mouse driver; Windows 3.0
automatically creates a new driver for you.
Follow these steps to install and run MOUSE7PT.EXE:
1.
Identify the disk and directory where the current
MOUSE.COM file is stored.
2.
Insert your Reference diskette in drive A.
3.
Use the COPY command to copy MOUSE7PT.EXE from
your Reference diskette to the directory on your hard disk
that contains the MOUSE.COM file. (See your MS-DOS
Reference Manual for instructions on using the COPY
command.)
4.
Log onto the directory that contains the MOUSE7PT.EXE
and MOUSECOM files.
5.
Type the following and press Enter to run the program:
MOUSE7PT MOUSE.COM newmouse.COM
(where newmouse. COM is the name you give the new
driver file.)
This command creates a new mouse driver that has been
modified to eliminate the cursor problem. When you name the
new driver, be sure to make the extension .COM.
