Win98se
Logitech marble mouse

Recently, occassionally for some unknown reason my ps2 marble mouse either
is not there on the desktop screen, or as I just start to use it, it
freezes....then I have to reboot.
No error messages are displayed anywhere. Some bootups are ok!!!...Once I am
up & running for a few seconds the mouse remains OK. Teminal connections
secure.

I have installed the "latest" mousware drivers with no improvement.

I have streamlined my startups in "msconfig"...still the same.

My startup includes Autoexec.bat & Config.sys files ticked in msconfig, per
recommendations here. Keyb uk/......is in Cofig.sys.

I have read thro' many posts in this N/G but not found the same problems
existing.

Have not tried another mouse type.

TIA

Terry, I am confused. I thought you had solved your small font problem.
Could this font problem be related to an incorrect display driver that you
have installed and is your operating system 98SE?
