It could be, your new mouse sounds much younger than W95. Try going to
the MS site and getting all the patches to bring your OS as up to date
as W95 ever will be now, and check with the mouse manufacturer's site
for a W95 driver. Another good bet is that the mouse install program has
pinched an IRQ which is already in use. If you right click in the main
window of My Computer and look up 'properties' you can check them all.
