You need to have a mouse driver loaded when playing in DOS mode. Search around for documentation that's specific to the one you're using (i.e.; MS, Logitech, generic, etc.). FWIW, a Microsoft command (in autoexec.bat) might look like this: SET MSINPUT=C:\MSINPUT LH C:\MSINPUT\MOUSE\MOUSE.EXE /Q Of course, for the above to work, you would have to have both an MS mouse, as well as a directory called msinput. Hope this gets you pointed in the right direction.<g> Cheers! Marc
Nascar2 was made to run in windows... You need to make a batch file first with mouse.com in it. It should boot your mouse up. That or play right from windows. I had teh samr problem but I just played from windows

I had teh samr problem but I just played from windows Nascar 2 will run in Windows, but it is Native to DOS, and tends to run smoother there (DOS) on most machines. You just need to load your mouse driver- you can stick it in your autoexec.bat file, or load it manually by entering DOS, changing to the mouse directory and typing "mouse." (works with most drivers). -- God Bless, Steve (remove the <remove this> from my address when replying via e-mail)
