- Subject: re: Mouse driver ... in HMA
- Lines: 20
-
- Ian,
-
- You've hit the nail right on the head.
-
- When the MS mouse driver 8.20a reports that '.... /X no longer supported',
- it implies that there was such a thing as a /X switch in 8.10 which ...
- loads the driver in the HMA, where it coexists with the rest of DOS 5 code.
-
- Anyone know what trick is behind this? All I know is that MicroBrains removed
- this option in version 8.20 which was released with Windows 3.1.
-
- I did try the /X switch for a couple of days, but experienced some random
- hangs and reboots, so in the end I chucked out MS mouse 8.10 all together.
