ALTERNATE MOUSE DRIVER INSTRUCTIONS
Problem:
Your KA program misbehaves with your current mouse driver causing the mouse
to behave irregularly or possibly drop speech from the program.
Cause:
There are many mice out there with many different mouse drivers. KA tests
our programs with a wide range of mouse drivers but cannot test all of
them with all configurations. Sometimes mouse drivers are found
incompatible because the mouse driver manufacturer does something
non-standard or maybe the mouse driver was created after the KA program
and has new features that could cause a conflict.
Note:
The following instructions and examples assume you are using DOS version
5 or above. If you are not sure what version of DOS you are running type
VER at DOS prompt and it will tell you. If you are using a version of DOS
less than 5, you will need to substitute the EDIT command with EDLIN or
your text editor of choice.
Solution:
˘ Copy the MOUSE driver to your hard disk drive from the UTILITY
DISK option 2.
˘ At the C:\> prompt type EDIT CONFIG.SYS
˘ Read through the file and search for a line similar to
DEVICE=C:\MOUSE\MOUSE.SYS
˘ If you find this line add the letters REM at the beginning of the line,
i.e. REM DEVICE=C:\MOUSE\MOUSE.SYS
˘ If you don't have this line, just continue on in the instructions.
˘ Go to the FILE menu and choose OPEN.
˘ Type in AUTOEXEC.BAT and hit ENTER.
˘ If you get a message saying LOADED FILE IS NOT SAVED. SAVE IT NOW?
please say YES.
˘ Read through the file and search for a line similar to C:\MOUSE\MOUSE.COM.
If the line begins with the word SET or PATH, ignore it and continue
searching. When you find the line, change it to reflect where you copied
the new mouse driver i.e. C:\MOUSE.COM.
˘ Go to the FILE menu and choose SAVE.
˘ Go to the FILE menu and choose EXIT.
˘ Reboot your computer (CTRL-ALT-DEL) so the new mouse driver will load.
