OSWAMOUS - MOUSE DOES NOT WORK IN WIN-OS/2 USING OS/2 WARP
01/15/96
=======================================================================
Mouse Does Not Work in WIN-OS/2 Using OS/2 Warp
=======================================================================
Please Read Entire Document for Full Explanation of Procedures
--------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION
1. In a WIN-OS/2 Full Screen session, a white mouse pointer appears in
the middle of the screen but does not move.
2. In a WIN-OS/2 Window session, the mouse pointer is black on the OS/2
Desktop. When the mouse pointer is moved over the session, the
pointer turns into an hour glass.
In both cases the keyboard works.
RESOLUTION
Check the IRQ settings. There probably is an IRQ conflict between
serial ports. If the mouse is on COM1, disable COM3 or assign it to
another IRQ. You can change COM3 and COM4 IRQs and address; for example:
x:\OS2\COM.SYS(3.03e8,2)
Note: If you want to use IRQ5, LPT port 2 must be disabled. If you use
IRQ 2 or 9, remember these are cascaded IRQs.
