Hey thanks guys, i downloaded virtual machine and after 4 hours waiting for it to download its installed with my win 98 operating system.
I am ahppy and sad at the moment, i now can shut down to dosmode thru 98 and get my new copy of Battlespire (cost me $10 with 2 vother games at a tender centre) (its a spin off from the elder scroll series if your interested) to run but i need a mouse driver for the dos environment now i use to have one but must of lost it when i moved last year. If anyone has one i would be very happy theres nothing worse then paying for a really old game spending 12 hours finding ways to get it to run just to get stumped by needing a mouse.
Thanks again guy :titan:

Here is the one I use. Small footprint which is nice.

CuteMouse

In case you are not familiar with how to install drivers you simply need to load ctmouse.exe from your autoexec.bat file.

assuming you have the ctmouse executable in a directory c:\ctmouse add either ...

c:\ctmouse\ctmouse.exe

or

loadhigh c:\ctmouse\ctmouse.exe

as a line in the autoexec.bat file (preferably at the end as ctmouse will automatically load itself into upper memory if space is available).
