SYMPTOMS
========
The following error message is displayed when you start your system:
Warning!! Overwriting an old copy of the EGA Device Driver
CAUSE

This error occurs if the MOUSE.SYS 7.04 device driver is loaded in the
CONFIG.SYS file before the EGA.SYS 2.10.18 driver.
RESOLUTION
==========
Microsoft recommends that the MOUSE.SYS driver be loaded after the EGA.SYS
driver in the CONFIG.SYS. Both of these drivers are included with Microsoft
Windows version 3.0.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem with Windows 3.0 and the Microsoft
Mouse driver, version 7.04. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post
new information here as it becomes available.
