i have this problem with all windows, but i currentl am using 3.1 so ill post here.

i have a microsoft ps2 intellimouse and a QDI titanium IB+ mobo and a converter for my com1 port. i also have com2 port to use but...

the problem is that no matter what driver i use the mouse won work, but the mouse works fine on other systems. i also replaced the com port annd tried com2 (old ribbon cable style port)

any help?

MSD properly detects it is ps2 and 3 buttons but it still wont work with microsoft mouse software
HELP!

Windows 3.1 should have its own mouse driver, which theoretically should pick up most PS/2 mice.

But in reality, intellimice are newer gen laser mice, and may not be 100% compatible with 16-bit environments/OSes such as Win3.1.
And the worst part is [as we all know] MS does not provide 16-bit Windows drivers for newer hardware.

Try [if not already] a few DOS based mouse drivers:

they might just work.
Also, this server:
http://www.mpoli.fi/files/hardware/MOUSE/
has a plethora of mouse drivers, some even for Win3.1.

Hope this helps.
