Hi all I have tested the recently released usb interface for Dos by Bret Johnson and now have a usb mouse attached to my FreeBasic /FreeDos application. Although I have seen the discussion on this, I thought I would share my experience.
This is a really welcome development for FreeDos users, as the availability of ps2 and serial devices is starting to dry up It is my intention to swap the mouse for a joystick with a single thumb button. For those that are interested, this is the Autoexec.bat extract which works for me. Path C:\dos32; C:\Dos32\DosLFN.com C:\Dos32\cwsdpmi.exe cd\usb usbuhci IRQ 11 DisableLegacySupport usbprint usbmouse cd\ C:\Dos32\ctmouse C:\Dos32\LBACache My app has a loop timer in micro sec's, and it allows me to keep track of changes that cause longer than expected execution times. It runs at 10 Micro Sec on a 533Mhz Industrial Board, with a FreeBasic / CGUI app. Previously I used a 2 button mouse pad on ps2. Using the usb mouse driver with a Microsoft mouse didnt change the timing at all, which I am very pleased about.
