windows 98 intellimouse prob


Pai

Recommended Posts

major problem with computer and getting frustrated.

Running windows 98 and on start up it insists on changing the point32.exe location so that it never recognises the mouse. Every time I change it back it will work once or twice and then tell itself to look somewhere incorrect for point32.exe i.e. generally no file or directory path just point32.exe.

Any helpful advice other than upgrade to XP!!!!! Before i float test the PC.

Also on start up after usual autoexec lines it say REM T SHOOT (followed by picture glyphics). What is this worrying display of individuality!

Hope someone can help.

sounds like one of two things,

you have a trojan on your PC, or did have, OR you have a virus. id suggest its a trojan. the "REM T SHOOT" bit and the pictures etc make me think virus, put if files and stuff get messed with like they are i think someones trying to freak you out disabling the mouse, just a guess but sounds like your problem...

try get some anti virus software from cnet.com ( free trials on most ) and get hold of "trojan remover" and scan your pc with all of these.
