subject: Mouse on com3 problems?

 DW>       It is my understanding that in OS/2, the mouse HAS to be on
 DW> COM 1.  Also, as has already been mentioned,  OS/2 loads the mouse
 DW> driver before it loads the com ports.  The mouse and com ports use
 DW> separate drivers.
I ran a serial mouse on Com2 for a couple years before replacing with a PS/2 
mouse. Warp 3.0 and 4.0 both detected it automatically. My modem is on Com1.
