Hello-

I have written a simple program which uses the mouse (Microsoft
compatible mouse).  It works fine when I run it on a CGA
monitor.  When I run it on a Hercules monitor, there is no
mouse cursor.

I think I read something once about having to put a 6 into
memory location 40:49.  Can anyone tell me what I have to
do to get it working with Hercules?

Thanks in advance
