The mouse driver may not install due to a possible conflict between
the Microsoft Mouse driver and the IBM fixed-disk organizer (FDO).
This problem can be avoided by altering the load order of the two
programs. If the mouse driver is loading first and being destroyed by
the FDO, edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file so the FDO loads first. If the
FDO is loading first, load it after the mouse driver.
Please note that this workaround is not guaranteed to avert all
conflicts, but it has yielded positive results in many instances.
