SUMMARY
=======

The ATI VGA Wondercard has a Microsoft-compatible mouse port and comes with an
ATI 2.0 version mouse driver.

MORE INFORMATION
================

When MS-DOS 5.0 Shell detects the mouse driver, it displays a message warning
you that you have an incompatible mouse driver. If you disable the mouse, you
will not be able to use your mouse in Shell.

ATI suggests adding the following line to the DOSSHELL.INI file:

  MOUSEINFO=2.00,ignore

This line will correct the problem, and you should encounter no further errors
due to the mouse interacting with Shell.

The product included here, ATI Wondercard, is manufactured by vendors independent
of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this
product's performance or reliability.
