Logitech Cyberman Requires MS-DOS Mode (129562)
The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q129562 SYMPTOMS
The Logitech Cyberman does not work correctly when you try to use it
with an MS-DOS-based program in a window. This problem usually occurs
with MS-DOS-based games.
CAUSE
The Cyberman does not function correctly in a window because the Windows
95 Logitech mouse driver does not support Cyberman. The real-mode Cyberman
drivers for Windows 3.x provided by Logitech do not work correctly in a
windowed session in Windows 95.
RESOLUTION
Run MS-DOS-based programs that require the Logitech Cyberman's 3-D
functionality using the MS-DOS Mode option.
MORE INFORMATION
When you upgrade a system configured with the Logitech Cyberman from
Windows or Windows for Workgroups 3.x to Windows 95, the real-mode driver
for the Cyberman is moved from the AUTOEXEC.BAT file to the DOSSTART.BAT
file for MS-DOS Mode compatibility. Setup also removes the old Logitech
mouse driver from the SYSTEM.INI file.
The hardware detection portion of Setup detects the Cyberman as a serial
mouse and installs the Windows 95 driver for the serial mouse. This lets
you use the Cyberman as a mouse with no 3-D capabilities in Windows 95.
Cyberman is manufactured by Logitech, a vendor independent of Microsoft;
we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this product's
performance or reliability.
