1.   WHAT'S NEW IN THIS RELEASE
     
     MouseWare works with any Logitech or Microsoft-compatible pointing
     device(s). This release includes a number of new features, mainly for
     Windows 95 support. There is a new setup program that runs under
     Windows 3.1X and Windows 95. Also included is a new Windows 95 user
     interface and drivers. For more information about using MouseWare
     under Windows 95, see the section titled: "Windows 95" below.


2.   WINDOWS 95


2.1  Loading Drivers Only
     
     Windows 95 has the ability to load device drivers without running
     the Setup program. Loading the devices drivers this way, however,
     does not install the user interface programs. Windows 95 can load
     device drivers in two ways:
     
     First, you can use the Device Manager which is accessed through
     the System icon in the Windows 95 Control Panel. Select the entry
     for the mouse, go to the driver page and select Change Driver.
     When prompted, press the Have Disk button to load the driver from
     the floppy.
     
     The second method is to run the Add New Hardware Wizard from the
     Windows 95 Control Panel. Have the Hardware Wizard conduct a complete
     search for new devices, then use the Have Disk option to copy the
     mouse driver from the floppy disk.
     
2.2  Uninstall Program
     
     MouseWare can be removed from Windows 95 by running the
     Uninstall program. To access this program, click on the
     Add/Remove Programs icon in the Windows 95 Control Panel. Select
     MouseWare and press the Remove button. The uninstall
     program will remove all control center files but will not remove
     the mouse driver itself.
     
     
3.   DOS AND WINDOWS 3.1X
     
     This version of MouseWare will not install on DOS only machines.
     You need either Windows 3.1X or Windows 95 on your system.

     With MouseWare, a MouseWare group is created to include
     the new program icons. You can also access the MouseWare Control
     Center via the mouse icon in the Windows Control Panel.
     
     
3.1  Manually Decompressing Files
     
     Several files on the installation disk have been compressed. These
     files must be decompressed before you can use them. The SETUP program
     automatically decompresses these files during installation. However,
     should the need arise, we have provided a method for you to manually
     decompress these files. Compressed files have file names that end with
     a percent sign (%). To decompress a file manually, use the
     LGEXPAND.EXE utility provided on the installation disk.
     
     For example, to decompress the file "WMOUSECC.EXE" to your hard disk,
     type:
     
     A:\lgexpand A:\WMOUSECC.EX% C:\MOUSE\WMOUSECC.EXE
     
     Please make sure that the destination directory
     (C:\MOUSE in this example) exists before you issue this command.
     
     
3.2  Installing For DOSSHELL
     
     Load the DOS mouse driver prior to loading DOSSHELL in the
     AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Also, do not launch Windows from DOSSHELL, which
     may result in a loss of mouse functionality under Windows. Nor should
     you attempt to load the DOS mouse driver in a DOS box under Windows.
     
     
3.3  Loading the Driver into High Memory
     
     It is recommended that you do not use "LOADHI" to load the DOS Mouse
     Driver, because the driver will optimize the use of available upper
     memory automatically and free up conventional memory.


3.4  Smart Move Feature
     
     When Smart Move is enabled, the cursor automatically goes to the
     default push button when a dialog or message box appears. For some
     applications that use non-standard dialog boxes and/or non-standard
     buttons, this feature may not work all the time.
     
     If the dialog box does not have a default command
     button, Smart Move moves the cursor to the first button it finds. The
     cursor is not moved if it cannot find a button. If you prefer to have
     the cursor move to the center, or upper left corner of the dialog box
     if no button is found, use a text editor, like Notepad, and edit the
     file C:\MOUSE\MOUSECC.INI.
     
     [Button Assignments]
     MoveTo=Center
          or
     MoveTo=TopLeft
     
     To set it back to default, remove the "MoveTo=" line.
     
     
3.5  Changing the Keyboard Override
     
     The Keyboard Override for disabling the Windows
     shortcuts temporarily is the Control key. If you would like to change
     it to the Shift key, or set it to none, use a text editor, like
     Notepad, and edit the file C:\MOUSE\MOUSECC.INI.
     
     [Button Assignments]
     Disabler=Shift
          or
     Disabler=Off
     
     To reinstate the default, remove the "Disabler=" line.
     
     
3.6  Two Button Mouse Chording
     
     If you have a two button mouse, pressing the right and left button
     simultaneously can act as a third button, we call this feature
     "chording".
     
     
3.7 Support for COM 3 and COM 4

     MouseWare includes support for COM 3 and COM 4 under both DOS
     and Windows. This also includes support for atypical addresses
     and IRQs. To enable a search for such a port some small changes
     need to be made in the MouseDrv.ini file. First "COM3" or "COM4"
     must be added to the PortSearchOrder line in the [Global]
     section. Next, the "BaseAddress=" and "IRQValue=" lines in the
     [COM3] or [COM4] section of the file must reflect the actual
     values of the port. Once this is done, the device should work
     following system reboot.


4.   OS/2 Support
     
4.1  Installing To OS/2
     
     OS/2 has three-button support for Logitech serial and PS/2 mouse, and
     two-button support for Logitech bus mice. OS/2 should automatically
     detect and support the Logitech mouse connected to your system when
     OS/2 is installed. If your Logitech mouse does not work properly after
     installing OS/2, you will have to manually select the proper Logitech
     mouse driver. Please follow these steps to correct the problem:
     
  1) Determine the type of mouse you own. If you have a PS/2 or bus mouse,
     skip down to step 2. If you have a Logitech serial mouse you need to
     know if it is M-series or C-Series. Look at the bottom of your mouse,
     if it says "CA", "CC", "CE" or "C7," then you own a C-Series mouse,
     otherwise you own an M-Series mouse.
  
  2) Double click the OS/2 System icon.
  
  3) Double click the System Setup icon.
  
  4) Double click the Selective Install icon.
  
  5) Select the Mouse option and press Enter.
  
  6) If you are using a PS/2 or M-Series serial mouse, you may select any
     of the following: "PS/2 [tm] Style Pointing Device", "Serial Pointing
     Device", "Logitech M-Series Mouse".
  
  7) Select the entry "Bus Style Mouse" if you have a bus mouse.
  
  8) If you have a Logitech C-series mouse and are running OS/2 version
     2.1, select "Logitech [tm] C-Series Serial Mouse". If, you are running
     version 2.0, choose "Logitech [tm] Mouse".
  
     
4.2  Win-OS/2 Support
     
     In Win-OS/2 full screen mode, full functionality is available. To
     install MouseWare under Win-OS/2, do the following:
     
  1) Double click the "Command Prompts" icon on the OS/2 desktop.
  
  2) Double click on the "Win-OS/2 full screen" icon.
  
  3) Run the SETUP program from the MouseWare diskette.
     
     When running Windows applications from the OS/2 desktop the
     acceleration and speed sensitivity features will be disabled.
     
     Do not run Win-OS/2 from a DOS box while running MouseWare, your 
     mouse will not function properly under these circumstances.
     
     
4.3  DOS Under OS/2 2.x
     
     MouseWare DOS functionality will not be available in DOS under
     OS/2. Your mouse will be controlled by OS/2.
     
     
5.   Windows NT Support
     
     If your mouse is not working, try selecting the device driver as
     follows:
  
  1. In the Program Manager, go to the MAIN group.
  
  2. Select WINDOWS NT SETUP.
  
  3. Select OPTIONS, Change System Settings.
  
  4. Click the down arrow next to the mouse selection and choose one of the
     following:
     
     If you have a Logitech serial Mouse, select "Logitech Serial Mouse",
     If you have a Logitech PS/2 (Mouse Port) mouse select "Logitech
     MousePort Mouse", If you have a Logitech Bus Mouse select "Microsoft
     (green buttons)" or "Logitech Bus Mouse".
     
     Do not install MouseWare in Windows NT. Use the Logitech mouse
     driver included in the Windows NT release. This driver has full
     support for all the Logitech pointing devices. To change the mouse
     settings, run the Windows NT Control Panel.


6.   TROUBLESHOOTING     
     
6.1  Restoring Old AUTOEXEC.BAT, CONFIG.SYS, WIN.INI, and SYSTEM.INI
     
     The installation program saves these files starting with the .000
     extension, and increments them to the next available numbered
     extension if it finds an existing file with the same name and
     extension.
     
     
6.2  Mouse Detection Problems
     
6.2.1 Mouse connected to the MousePort
     
     If your mouse is connected to the mouse port and is not detected by
     the system, attempt the following step(s):
     
  1) Your mouse port might need to be enabled through the SETUP menu of
     your computer (please check with your computer documentation regarding
     the SETUP menu).
  
  2) If you have a mouse with both serial and mouse port adapters, connect
     it to the computer through  the serial port. Reboot and check if the
     mouse is detected properly.
  
  3) If adapter(s) were not including in your package, your mouse was
     designed to work on only one type of port (Serial OR PS/2). Refer to
     your package for the type of port your mouse supports.
  
  4) If you must connect the mouse through the mouse port, add the
     following modifications to the
     C:\MOUSE\MOUSEDRV.INI file, reboot and check if the mouse is detected
     properly:
     
            [Technical]
            ForcePS2EquipmentFlag=On
     
     If the problem persists, please check for a possible computer BIOS ROM
     upgrade from your computer manufacturer.
     
     Some notebook systems such as IBM Thinkpad, have both an external
     Mouse Port and an integrated Pointing Stick which is connected to the
     Mouse Port. If your mouse is having difficulty running
     on the Mouse Port of this type of system, try using the serial port
     instead.
     
6.2.2 Mouse on the Serial Port
     
     If your mouse is connected to the serial port and is not detected by
     the system, add the following modification to the MOUSEDRV.INI file,
     reboot and check if the mouse is detected properly:
     
     [Technical]
     Timing=Hardware
     
     
6.3  Toshiba Notebooks and IBM ThinkPad
     
     On Toshiba 3400 series sub-notebooks and the ThinkPad line of IBM
     laptops, if the "pointing device mode" parameter in the computer's
     setup is set to "simultaneous", an external mouse connected to the
     mouse port will be identified as a generic two-button mouse. If this
     external mouse has three buttons, the following modifications should
     be made to the MOUSEDRV.INI file:
     
     [PS2]
     NumberOfButtons=3
     
     The connected device model may also be specified.
     
     In Windows 95 the information is stored in the registry instead of the
     MOUSEDRV.INI file.  Using the Registry Editor, REGEDIT, search for the
     NumberOfButtons key and change its value to "3" instead of "2."  The
     REGEDIT program is not easy to use, so try this alternative:
     
     Copy the text between the dashed lines to a file and save it on your
     hard disk using the name "PS2.REG"
     
          ----------------
          REGEDIT4
     
          [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Logitech\MouseWare\
            CurrentVersion\PS2\0000]
          "NumberOfButtons"="3"
          ----------------
     
     Then open the folder containing PS2.REG and double-click on PS2.REG.
     Reboot your system and the mouse should work correctly.
