FREEZING USB MICE (Win98) -- POSSIBLE FIX

Recommended Posts

Symptoms:  USB mice freezes, several minutes after loading the game.

My Configuration:

  SiS 735

  Geforce 2 Pro

  256 Mb

  Logitech USB mice

I'm not sure if this problems effects everyone. Knowing that there are so many OPF players out there--

Although I cannot confirm this, this problem could arise from chipsets other than the SiS 735 (if it is a chipset problem).  The patch from Microsoft was provided for AMD chipsets, but it worked perfectly for my SiS 735 (ECS).

Here is the Link:

If that doesn't work than, you can try this page: http://www.usbman.com/Guides/SiS%20USB%20Tips%20and%20Tricks.htm

I've tried all the bios settings from the above page.  After a long time of toying around, you can fix the mouse freezing problem.  But it won't work again if you reinstall Windows 98 or Format your Harddrive.  I've yet to isolate the single thing I removed or change or autodetect from the system devices that fixed it...

ECS K7S5A

If you download the latest bios 2 months ago for the Motherboard with Onboard lan, Download it AGAIN!  If you used the latest bios back then, it will disable Onboard LAN; whereas if you download the latest bios for the mobo with No Onboard LAN, it gives you LAN support!!! ECS has fixed the mispost.

Hope this helps frustrated OPF players (do they actually exist or is it just me?)
