How to Upgrade Your MouseWare Files -- Part 1
-----------------------------------
If you are upgrading from a previous version of MouseWare, we recommend
that you install your MouseWare in the same directory as your previous
version. The INSTALL program replaces the old software in the MOUSE
directory with the new versions, and then asks for your permission before
it replaces any menu definition files already in your MOUSE directory.
Before you install MouseWare Utilities version 5.0, be sure to "unload"
your current MouseWare files. If you're not sure of the load sequence
or have problems using the "OUT" parameter, edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file
and place a "REM" statement before any MouseWare program names.
Then re-start your computer. For example:
CHANGE THIS: | TO THIS:
|
date | date
time | time
c:\mouse\mouse | REM c:\mouse\mouse
If you use MOUSE.SYS, edit your CONFIG.SYS file to remove the statement
DEVICE=[DRIVE]\[PATH]\MOUSE.SYS. Then restart your computer.

How to Upgrade Your MouseWare Files -- Part 2
-----------------------------------
If "C:\MOUSE" is in your PATH statement when you install MouseWare 5.0,
INSTALL won't modify your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, even if you select
"Automatic Mouse Support". In such case, re-edit AUTOEXEC.BAT to remove
the "REM" statement.
If you have previously customized CLICK (by editing CLICK.SRC or running
ClickAdd), use the NEWCLICK command to add your current customized
settings to the new released version of CLICK.
If you are upgrading MouseWare 3.x to 5.0, the "MENU" command has been
replaced with the "LOGIMENU" command. If your AUTOEXEC.BAT file contains
the "MENU" command, replace it with the "LOGIMENU" command.

How to Install your Mouse for Microsoft Windows 3
-------------------------------------------------
The MouseWare disk has an enhanced Windows mouse driver, which you must
use instead of the Logitech mouse driver provided on the Windows disks.
Select "Install Windows 3 Mouse Driver" from the MouseWare Main
Installation Menu. This copies a program called "WIN3INST" and the
enhanced driver to the mouse directory. It then runs "WIN3INST" so that
you can install the Windows driver to the Windows directory. After
installation, you can run "WIN3INST" when you need to change driver
parameters.
If you have purchased a Logitech mouse/Microsoft Windows bundle, the
Logitech enhanced Windows driver is already on that Windows disk;
therefore "WIN3INST" is useful only for changing the driver parameters.
If you are using the "MOUSE.SYS" driver on a 386 machine, you MUST add the
following statement in the file "SYSTEM.INI" under the [386Enh] section
LOCAL=PC$MOUSE
(Be sure that "PC$MOUSE" is written in UPPER CASE)

How to Install for Earlier versions of Windows
----------------------------------------------
Please follow the Windows documentation or your "Getting Started" manual
for your mouse for proper configuration of the Logitech Mouse under
Windows 2.x
How to Install your Mouse for the GEM Environment
-------------------------------------------------
When installing GEM, if there is no selection for the Logitech Mouse,
choose the selection for "MOUSE.COM".

How to Install for the DOS 4.0 Shell Program
--------------------------------------------
IBM DOS 4.0x installation places a new AUTOEXEC.BAT file in the root
directory and a DOSSHELL.BAT file in the \DOS directory. In order to
use a Logitech Mouse (any type) with the mouse driver in memory,
you must modify both the AUTOEXEC.BAT and DOSSHELL.BAT files.
1) With a text editor, open the DOSSHELL.BAT file and find this statement:
@SHELLC /MOS:[driver].MOS/TRAN/COLOR/ etc.......
(where [driver] can be PCIBMDRV, PCMSDRV, or PCMSPDRV)
2) Delete "/MOS:[driver].MOS" from the @SHELLC statement. Leave the rest
of the statement. The modified statement will now look like this:
@SHELLC /TRAN/COLOR/ etc.......
3) Modify your AUTOEXEC.BAT file to include the C:\MOUSE sub-directory
in the PATH statement. Load MOUSE, LOGIMENU, and CLICK before DOSSHELL.
Now you can use your Logitech Mouse both inside and outside the DOS Shell.
