I would recommend using PS/2 all the time unless you are some strange features.....only really applies to touchpads. Then again some mice don't properly support PS/2 and so you would have to use a different driver.
Try disabling three buttons (or is it a MS -> AT format problem, got a switch on the bottom of your mouse?). good luck Alex
