Guest anon Posted January 28, 2003 Report Share Posted January 28, 2003 I guess you didn't make a boot floopy Eh ? Not sure how to fix your mouse problem, you might want to give more info though, type of mouse etc. I only had that problem once, and my solution was to d-load the latest cooker version of Xfree and harddrake. Not the best way of trying to fix it, and I wouldn't recomend it to a newbie, but it worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
