Doom For Windows 95 - No Mouse In XP (Home)

Recommended Posts

I have just loaded my old Doom For Windows 95 onto my Windows XP (Home) O.S.

Everything seems to be working just fine except that I have no Mouse

I do have mouse control within the configuration (setup) but when I launce a new game I have no mouse?

I have tried the following:

1 Uninstalled Microsoft Intellipoint Mouse Driver v4.1
2 Taken all programs out of Startup before loading the game.
3 Changed my default resolution of 1024X728 24Bit to lower resolutions
4 Configured the Doom For Windows 95 Application to run in Win 95 -
Win98/ME

None of the above has worked.

Here's my setup.

O.S. Windows XP (Home) - Clean Install
ATI Radeon 64
Sound Blaster Live! 7200
Microsoft Intellitype Office Keyboard
Athelon Firebird 1.2 Gig
512k PC-133 RAM

Any help sure would be appreciated,

Doom95 + WinXp = ROFLMFAO

Two wrongs don't make a right.....

Here's the simplest solution: dump Doom95 *cough* blows *cough* and get ZDOOM.

I swear, if another one of these types of posts comes in within the next hour, I'll check myself into Charter. Yeah, I probably jinxed myself for saying that, but hey.....

Questions about mice and various versions of the Doom executable should have their own section in FAQs or something... I've lost count of how many times I've seen this question in these forums.

Thanks so much for the speedy reply and my apologies for bothering you folks -- I'm kinda new to all this and was just sincerely looking for help.

If getting zdoom has helped, fair play, a problem is huge to someone who is new, and paltry to someone who knows the answers,what's that old saying? You can't find the answer without asking the question, or something. At least you told everyone as much info as you had to make it easier for them to help you

Alright, I'll admit, I haven't used it much...but what I did use of it absolutely scared me.
