Bill, I understand your problem, but you have not yet answered my
question.  DID YOU TRY UNCHECKING "Use Detected Ports Only"??
This is located under Configure -> Connect Devices -> Ports.
Once it is unchecked, you should have to option to select among 8 Comm
ports, 8 fossils, and 4 bios ports.
If this is not the cased for you, you may have to uninstall the mouse
under Win95 and then reinstall TFW for it to find the port.
