- No, you can't plug in a PS/2 style mouse in an ATI Ultra. The connector is
- different. I havn't seen a ATI VGA Wonder+, but I believe it uses the same
- connector as the ATI Ultra. Although the ATI Ultra is not plug compatible,
- it is port compatible with a Microsoft Inport mouse (newer MS bus mouses).

- Have you tried IRQ2? At lease this works on my ATI Ultra, whereas IRQ5 did
- not work.
