Q28502: Windows 1.01 MOUSE.DRV File Included with Mouse 1.0

The current Mouse Setup disk contained in the EasyCad and MS
Paintbrush software includes the mouse driver for Windows Version 1.01
owners.

   Because the Windows Version 1.01 mouse driver does not recognize
mice with InPort hardware, Microsoft has included an updated MOUSE.DRV
file to resolve the problem.
   Copy the MOUSE.DRV file to your Windows Install disk and reinstall
the Windows software. If you have Windows Version 1.03 or a newer
version, you will not have this problem.
