How to Install Microsoft IntelliPoint Mouse Drivers
This document contains the installation information for the Microsoft IntelliPoint Software mouse drivers. Follow these steps if you need to reinstall the mouse drivers.
Windows installation
Insert the Gateway 2000 version 4.1 System CD into your CD-ROM drive. From the Program Manager, click on the word File, then click on Run. On the command line type:
d:\msinput\disk1\setup.exe
and press Enter to begin.
After the Microsoft IntelliPoint Setup screen appears and you have read the information on the screen, click on the Continue button. The next screen contains more read-me information. Once you have read through it, click on the Continue button.
The next window asks you what type of installation you wish to use. Click on the button labeled Express to continue. The Setup program then displays the directory it wants to load the drivers into. C:\MSINPUT is highlighted in blue in the path box. Click on Continue to accept this default and continue.
As the files are being copied to your hard drive, a percentage bar appears across your screen. As your system files are being updated, the mouse arrow is displayed as an hour glass. The screen briefly flashes to the new group window and icons being added to the Program Manager.
The final screen tells you that Setup is complete. Click on the Reboot button for the new mouse drivers to take effect. When you return to Windows, the Welcome to Microsoft IntelliPoint Software window appears on your screen. Click on the Close button to exit this window. If you want this screen to be displayed every time you enter Windows, take the "X" out of the box.
