SUMMARY

Setup may change the settings for the Logitech mouse settings back to the default value every time Setup is run to change any other option.

MORE INFORMATION

To demonstrate this, assume you have a computer with a mouse port. The mouse is connected to COM1 and is a serial mouse. Assume the settings were
   [LOGIMOUSE]
   Type=2
   Port=1
				
which means a serial mouse was on COM1.

Then, the settings were changed to
   [LOGIMOUSE]
   Type=1
   Port=
				
This change prevents the mouse from working.

To make the mouse work correctly, change the SYSTEM.INI settings to the correct settings for the mouse.
