At $5, it looked like the ideal thing to take along on trips. Thinking that things might be easier if I used a PS/2 adapter, I bought one of those, too. Plugging into the PS/2 port doesn't seem to do a thing. What I need to know is, did I just forget a step like the other Sandy did? Or is it impossible to use a serial port mouse + adapter on the Thinkpad? If I can, what settings should I be using? Do I need to install the mouse drivers, or can I just depend on the WIN95 drivers that are already there? Also, can I have the option to use either one, or must I have one always disabled? I have the 365XD, if it matters. Sandy R.
