Nancy, I noticed you are knowledgeable about BB. Perhaps you can help me with a mouse problem. I just installed an A2386SX and a VGA card. The install was successful except I can't get a mouse on the MS-DOS side. I modifed my AUTOEXEC.BAT file as suggested in the manuel with the JANUS add to the path statement and added AMOUSE and ATIME to the end of the file. On the MS-DOS shell screen there is no mouse cursor. When I switch back to the Amiga screen there is no window showing the mouseserv is active. Switching back to DOS and running AMOUSE I get the message that it is already installed, back on the Amiga screen I then can see the bar saying the mouseserv is active and it will switch between the two ports with left Amiga-P toggle. Still no mouse on the DOS shell. I am able to run a game (Global Conquest) from the virtual drive but again the program tells me no mouse is installed when I use the keyboard toggle between keyboard and mouse controll. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. David
