    Mouse.com

    I'm sure most of you guys can remember the file called "mouse.com" that was used to initialise the mouse in dos? Well,guess what? I need it!

    I want to play Ultima8 : Pagan again, but need the file to play it.
    Can anyone help me with this?

    (I tried a search on the web, but nothing)

    I think you can play Ultima Pagan on windows 2k/XP with the right patches.

    I did it a while ago, I'm sure. Love the Ultima series. I was addicted to Ultima Online for 3 years or so.

    You think you can maybe give a link to a pacth or something?

    (To be honest, I'm to lazy to do a search )

    Thanx!

    but does it work for WinXP?

    (can't test it yet, still downloading the game)

    Try searching for a driver called "cute mouse". The name sounds dumb but the driver works like a charm for most any dos game.

    I'll regret this...
    anyway, here goes:
    remember when the MS Intellimouse was popular?
    it came with drivers as I remembered it.
    also came with its own software.
    one of those programs is mouse.exe.
    what it does is initiates the mouse.
    this works in MS-DOS and other windows supported systems.
