AutoCAD 12 DOS Mouse Keeps Disappearing

[acad_2k]

I installed the mouse driver and it works but almost every time I start AutoCAD, I get a message that the mouse driver is not installed. I've installed it several times over the past week and it works until I restart the computer. Any suggestions?

Is the mouse driver loaded in the autoexcec.bat file?  Can you post a copy of the Autoexec.bat file you are using?

here it is. The only way I could figure to access it was to type at the C prompt,  "EDIT AUTOEXEC.BAT"

I don't see where a mouse driver is being loaded.  For example...

 

LH C:\MOUSE\MOUSE.EXE

 

Or...

 

LH C:\MOUSE\MOUSE.COM

You're entirely welcomed.  Glad to hear you got it to work.

I learned AutoCAD at my first architectural job where they had Release 13 running in Windows 95 so I was never exposed to DOS. I have to admit that I'm completely spoiled by the Windows environment but DOS is much more challenging and interesting.
