In Windows 98 when I have my PS2 mouse connected if USB is enabled in the BIOS it will boot up normally first time but subsequently upon booting it hangs. I am using a wireless PS2 mouse with a wired serial mouse also installed on a Gigabyte motherboard. This setup works fine in Windows 2000 and it only seems to be Win98 (any SR) which has problems. Can you offer any advice???

I hade also problems with USB in my W98 SE.
I had to install a patch wich I found on the Microsoft Homepage. Take a round on the HomePage. The File's name is 240075de.exe for the German Version wich I use. I think the English one should be without the "de" something like this: 240075.exe

Thanks for your help, I did try to find the file, but was unable to find the name given in ny way on the MS download site, and also unable to find any relevant files on the keyword search.

I think my motherboard is a Gigabyte GA5AX, but I've got a new motherboard which I will be putting in soon as I though it might have been a hardware fault, so I'll give it a try first and if not I'll let you know.

Thanks
