From:  dag%ucbarpa@Berkeley (David Allen Gewirtz)

I have encountered similar problems with the Microsoft Mouse and
Microsoft Word.  I have a vanilla IBM PC XT with the Microsoft Mouse
card.

I have found that I am unable to perform a warm boot after loading the
mouse driver from Microsoft.  Steve Kirsch's Mouse Systems PC/MOUSE
software and mouse driver do not exhibit the warm boot problem and
work quite well.

I would have expected that the folks who wrote the operating system
would have been able to make their mouse work with their own device
driver facilities, but...  And what happened to quality control?
