Should find most mouse, have had great success, both on serial/PS2 on old PC's and PS2 on new PC's, two/three button and my Dexxa wheel mouse.

Yes the website is my hobby, happier now got ADSL as stops the single tasking bottleneck of a 56K dialup modem. Though get frustrated that modern websites do not work with Arachne, hence dual boot with NT4.

Also as you may have realised not a fan of W3.x/95A

Bung us the URL of Pixel Art and will have a look.

ill have to reboot to my other partition to find the pixel32 adress- will show it shortly-
well, i like w31 - not 95a tho- thats terrible...
Arachne seems to show the sites ive seen well enough, problems seem more related to the single task limitations of dos (no right click popup menu to save stuff, etc.)

I thought that Win 3.xx had built-in support for the PS/2 mouse... Maybe i'm wrong

You're not wrong. Win3xx comes with the standard mouse drivers, but often the correct one must be selected using Windows setup (or its DOS equivalent).

DOS mouse drivers won't do much for Windows.

I dont know what this is about. If Win 3.xx has built in support and the mouse driver is easy to change, then whats the problem?
