The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Windows versions 3.0, 3.0a 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Microsoft Windows version 3.0 includes new versions of the MS-DOS mouse
drivers MOUSE.COM, MOUSE.SYS, MOUSEHP.COM, and MOUSEHP.SYS.

Normally, Windows 3.0 Setup automatically replaces older mouse drivers on
your hard disk with the new version. However, if you choose to not let
Setup modify your CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files, or if your mouse
driver is not listed in your CONFIG.SYS or AUTOEXEC.BAT file, the new
version isn't installed.

Make sure you are running the DOS mouse driver included with Windows
3.0. This can be verified by checking file dates. Older mouse drivers
can cause problems.
