Mouse Manager Functions Not Available With HP NewWave 4.1 (100311)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Mouse Driver for Windows
  • Microsoft Windows 3.0
  • Microsoft Windows 3.1
  • Microsoft Windows 3.11
  • Microsoft Windows for Workgroups
This article was previously published under Q100311

SYMPTOMS

If you run Hewlett-Packard (HP) NewWave version 4.1 with Microsoft Windows or Microsoft Windows for Workgroups, the Snap-to, Wrap Around, Magnify, and Locate functions in Mouse Manager do not work.

CAUSE

This problem is caused by the way that NewWave searches for Windows- based applications on your hard disk drive. It identifies Mouse Manager (MOUSEMGR.EXE) as an MS-DOS-based application instead of a Windows-based application; therefore, the four Extra Points functions are not operational.

RESOLUTION

Hewlett-Packard has created a file, MSMOUSE.SER, to correct this problem. To install this object file in NewWave, contact Hewlett-Packard NewWave Technical Support. The MSMOUSE.SER file is available for download through the Hewlett-Packard bulletin board service (BBS).
