Hi Y'all.

I just started using the Turbo debugger "td386" which switches the 386
into protected mode, so that the debugger runs in extended memory
leaving 640 for debugging the program (the program is HUGE). It's
great except for one thing: if I so much as *touch* the mouse while in
this mode, I get "unexpected interrupt" messages strewn around the
screen, then the computer hangs. I assume that the (microsoft) mouse
driver can't grok the mouse interrupts.

So, how do I debug a program that uses the mouse?

Any clues?

Thanks in advance!
