How does one detect the presence of a mouse?  I have a manual from 
Mouse Systems which describes interrupt 33h, function 0 as a 
'Mouse Reset' returning the mouse status (-1: installed, 0: not 
installed), but it's not clear to me that this interrupt is 
meaningful if a mouse driver isn't already installed.
