Similar problems on my Swan 386SX w/ 3MB, Everex MicroEnhancer, Mouse Systems
Mouse *AND* on the lab's IBM PS/2 Model 70 w/ IBM Mouse.

On the other hand, a friend with a *VERY* no-name 25mhz 386, w/ Microsoft Mouse
has no problems.

Caveat Microsoft!!!!


However, 286 mode works fine. For my tastes the /S mode handles dos applicationsbetter than /3 mode anyhow - never liked the fact that windows forgets about
full screen mode after a cut or paste!
