Hello,

I learnt about MenuetOS via osnews and found the concept fascinating. I successfully downloading and created a floppy image. Everything works excellently, except my USB mouse. Unfortunately, I can't use the keyboard to navigate around the MenuetOS. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Mouse Spec.

Gateway Logitech USB mouse.

Hmmm...I guess I'm the only person experiences this problem then.

I've a Logitech too and it works.

I think that it will work only,
if your bios emulates the ps/2 mouse.
(This means that you plug it in usb and
bios then tells Menuet that it is a ps/2 mouse)

You might be able to enable this feature in your bios setup.
I have an Award bios.

If you can't make it that way you can always use an usb->ps/2 adapter
and plug your mouse into the ps/2-slot. My mouse had an adapter included
in the package.

If your mouse is not detected (or you donÂ´t have mouse), you can use "a virtual mouse". Press ALT+F4 when you see the mouse pointer, press ALT+left, ALT+right, ALT+up or ALT+down to move the mouse pointer. to simulate the click, just press ALT+F4.
