Hello Mike,

     Thanx for the PS/2 mouse info.
     The 386 also has a Sound Galaxy 16 (Trust) card.
     I have set the blaster to irq10 to get it out of the way.
     I believe the DMA for a 3c501 card is a dummy DMA,
     meaning not actually used, but needs to be set on the NIC.  weird.
     If I ever get the pentium online I'll report here what worked.
Regards, Barry
