Hello Ray, I have a few questions about
your problem

1: have you tried using a ps/2 mouse (I
know not everyone
has a connector, but maybe you can get
one somewhere)

2: have you tried using a printer. Does
it work?

3: Have you tried to use a mouse in dos.
the EDIT program in WIN 95 is a dos
prog.that uses a mouse.
Boot in dos mode and load a dos mouse
driver then start EDIT.
Can you use the mouse to cut and paste?

4: have you installed a NON MS mouse
driver for WIN 95.

By this I mean a no name mouse that has
it's own win95 Driver
(usually xxMOUSE.vxd where xx might be
anything)somewhere on
the disk. This has worked for me
once,but I wouldn't bet on it.
If you can't find one, E-Mail me and
I'll
send you one of mine.

I downloaded your manual, and I think
the
>5 pins that say MS_JMP on one end and
PS/2_JMP on the other

is your PS/2 Mouse connector (according
to the Manual: PS/2_MS)

What Ubiratan was referring to with
>If you changed your board don't forget
that the old male DB9
>connectors have diferent conection with
the flat cable.

was the different pin-out between
COM-ports on new boards and
old serial connector cables (or the
opposite), but I don't
think this is the problem here.
