I have been trying to run GP2 from a DOS session on my P166 by re-starting from
Windows 95. When I do this, I have no mouse control in the menus. I've looked for
a DOS mouse driver but I don't seem to have one anywhere in Windows 95.
I've noticed a number of other posts from people who have re-stared in DOS mode and
they seem to have no problems. Can anyone who has done this help, please?
It may be a trivial problem, but I'm new to Win95.

I had the same problem at first. This is what I did:
Check the properties of 'Grand Prix 2' icon that was created on the
install.
'Program' tab, 'Advanced' button.
I changed the check box from 'Suggest MS-DOS mode as necessary' to
MS-DOS.
Select the 'Specify a new MS-DOS configuration', I added the
following lines to it: (to load Microsoft Mouse driver)
set mouse=c:\mouse
c:\mouse\mouse.exe /q
hope this is helpful!

Thanks to all the guys who replied to me on this. I now have a mouse driver up
and running! Now back to those not-so-hot laps :-)

You need a DOS mouse driver. There is one on the GP2 CD, in
utils\mouse. Just run mouse.com before running GP2 and away you go.
