Hello & Happy Holidays to Everyone,

I recently visited a cousin and she asked me to look at her laptop for her.
She has not used it for well over a year and it wasn't booting up.  I checked
it out for her and it appeared to have lost its CMOS settings.  I was able to
restore the settings and it booted into Windows 95, but will not recognize the
Glidepoint trackpad Mouse.  There is no external mouse, although an error
message comes up indicating that it should have one.  I am not at all familiar
with laptops and would appreciate any help.  I hope this is not considered off
topic.  Her laptop is a Sharp PC-3020, 5x86, 100 MHz, 640k (7140k extended)
with 2 PCMCIA slots that 'appear' to be empty.  The trackpad has 2 buttons.

TIA,
Wendy Brown
