Does changing the port designation enable the mouse to work?
Action:

a) Add the following line in AUTOEXEC.BAT:
C:\DOS\MOUSE\MOUSE.COM /x
b) Add the following line in CONFIG.SYS:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\MOUSE\MOUSE.SYS /x

4) Watch for a message indicating that the mouse driver is being loaded during the bootup process.
