>>>One of my users just installed an MS Intellimouse and the corresponding software on her Win98 laptop. The mouse works fine.

>>>However, starting any VFP SP3 application causes a GPF in Explorer.exe. The VFP app thereafter runs fine. Killing mswheel in the running tasks solves the problem, but disables the wheel features of the mouse. All other applications seem to work fine. Anybody seen this?

>>I don't have the Intellirat drivers installed with my wheel mouse, and it works fine with the apps I use it from (VFP, IE, etc.) I'm using the PS/2 compatible mouse port drivers from MS dated 4-23-1999 (MSMOUSE.VXD version 4.10.1998 and MOUSE.DRV version 9.01.0.0000)

>Win98? With NT and Win2K, I don't install the software either- the wheel just works. But it didn't on the Win98 laptop, until the mouse software waas installed. Just like on earlier versions of Win95.

Yeppers. Win98SE, the standard PS/2 compatible driver (vmouse.VXD contained in VMM32.VXD when the OS stuck itself together) and the two driver files as noted. Two button MS IntelliMouse Serial or PS/2 compatible part #96483 ProductID 63618-577-, read right off the mouse. I popped up IE5, Word97 and VFP6 to make sure the wheel functions in all as I remmebered, and it does.
