SUMMARY
The 400 ppi serial mouse may not install on the 9-pin serial port of an Epson Equity LT 386/SX. Epson America has confirmed this and offers a patch for this problem. You can obtain this patch from your Epson dealer.

Note: Not all Epson dealers may be aware of this problem, but they should be able to get the patch from their main Epson supplier.

According to two customers, the Microsoft BallPoint Mouse version 1.0 (using driver version 8.0) installs on COM1 if you use the /Y switch. Otherwise, the mouse locks the computer.

This information applies to the Microsoft Serial Mouse for MS-DOS systems.

The Epson product included here is manufactured by a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this product's performance or reliability.
