When I invoke a program that uses the mouse while in a DOS
window (such as Big DOS), after I exit I cannot use my mouse
anymore; that is, I can't call up the Desqview Menu by using
the {Desq} buttons on my mouse.  I have a two-button MS Mouse,
and to call up the menu I just hit both simultaneously.

I've tried the 'Revive Mouse' under Rearrange/Tune Performance
but it never helps.  I have to completely close the window and
restart Big DOS to get my mouse back.

Any suggestions?
