I am working on an older computer...it doesn't have any ps/2 ports...just a
serial port and the old fashion type port for the keyboard.  The mouse does
not work at all.  What I have done:  installed drivers, re-installed Win98,
deleted the mouse from the Device Manager and hoped that Windows would find
the hardware.  I think that has exhausted the "software" aspect of this
problem.  Inside the computer, the port to the MB connection (a ribbon
cable) seems to be connected tightly and accurately.  Is there anyway that
the port-to-mb ribbon cable is the problem?  Is there anything else I should
try?

Thanks for your help.
Marshall
