I have 2 machines that has a PS/2 type mouse. One a Compaq Presario P90 at
home and an IBM DX4-100 at work. Both were having problems with the mouse
similar to what's discussed here.

I loaded Microsoft mouse driver 9.0 at home in the Compaq and that seems to
fix the problem (it uses Logitech drivers before). I loaded the same MS mouse
Version 9.0 in the IBM and still having mouse problem. Well, 1 out 2 ain't
bad BUT I want to get it running in my IBM at work! 8-)
