time.

If The Mouse Does Not Work
--------------------------
This game is a DOS based game, as such the mouse driver
must be loaded for the game to use it. Check the documentation
on the mouse for your system for specific instructions
on loading the mouse driver. This is usually as simple
as adding one line to the autoexec.bat or config.sys file.
If your have MS-DOS 6.0, just type in help at the C: prompt
and search for mouse to find a example.
Here is how to approach the problem:
You can load the driver in the c:\config.sys file or
the c:\autoexec.bat file
Step 1) Find the mouse driver file.
Use the File - Search feature in the File Manager
to find mouse.sys or mouse.com
( be sure to start from C:\ for the search )
Step 2) Based on if you find mouse.com or mouse.sys
do 1 of the following: (not do both)
If you find mouse.sys then add this line to
the c:\config.sys file (include the path to the file)
So if you find the mouse.sys file in
C:\Windows then the entree looks like this:
DEVICEHIGH=C:\WINDOWS\MOUSE.SYS
If you find mouse.com in C:\WINDOWS then add these
2 lines ( including the path ) to the c:\autoexec.bat file
SET MOUSE=C:\WINDOWS\MOUSE.COM
C:\WINDOWS\MOUSE.COM
Now after rebooting, the mouse should function in the games
