Hello everyone,
I have a strange issue trying to get a serial mice to work on my 386 system...
The box has a GA-386UM mobo, runnung a AMD DX40 processor, with 4 MB Ram onboard.
I tried swapping two differend ISA multi/io cards, both offering two serial cards, parallel, ide, fdc.
BUT interestingly, four serial mouses (tested on other systems) don't work. AND, both multi/io card work on other systems (used them to use serial mouse on my test 486)
The serial ports are recognized correctly, but mouse not. The dos driver loads up, but, only the cursor shows up, no movement.
I suspect this is a common issue I have here, but I was unable to find a solution, so I ask you guys if you have some advice!
Thanks
Paul
