the following info is what i've gathered from using OS/2 EE 1.2 on
my 386 clone with the C7 mouse...Since i've responded to numerous
queries, i'll post to the net for all to save.

...Using the PC Mouse driver.....(i think it's mouse00.sys)
The problem is that the logitech mouse is programed when dos is loaded.
When you jump into os/2 from dos (with a warm boot) the mouse retains the
program and will NOT respond until you go back to dos or do a power off.

If you have booted dos first, the only way I can get the mouse to work
afterwards on os/2 is to shut the power off and then boot os2 first

It would be nice if logitech would write their own driver for os/2
(At this time Logitech is NOT working on an os/2 driver from what I know.)
