Thanks for the response terrister. I'm having trouble following that article though.

This mouse didn't ship with it's own serial card - do you think it still applies to me?

If so, would the serial/usb adapter function as the serial card? In that case, how do I set the I/O address on the card to the standard I/O address for COM1 or COM2, and disable the on-board COM port if it exists?

Does anyone have experience with this mouse? Was it plug and play?
