Disable the track point (Control Panel, System, Toshiba AcuPoint/PS2 Mouse or 
whatever, "Deactivate in this hardware-profile"). Then delete the serial 
mouse and reinstall the driver, do a reboot and pray. When it works you may 
trying to enable the trackpoint again. Anyway I think it will continue 
working even when disabled!!! 
Don't know whether it works for Win98, for OSR 2 it does.
