: : : : Hello all, : : I think I answered my own question from Oscar's web site. I believe that the issue with Optimouse assigning the secondary mouse to player 2 is the issue. Here is the solution I am going to try out later today: : : "Three Mouse Devices : : By using a DOS dual mouse driver, I have a PS/2 mouse and (2) serial OSCAR's : : operating together on my test machine. It is accomplished by using DOS MAME : : .37b11 or later and modifying your Autoexec.bat file this way: : : ------------------------- : : C:\MOUSE\MOUSE.EXE DUAL : : C:\OPTIDRV\OPTIDRV.COM /2 : : ------------------------- : : The dual mouse driver initializes the PS/2 mouse and the OSCAR connected to COM : : 1. These will both be assigned to "Player 1". The optidrv.com initializes the OSCAR : : connected to COM 2, and it is assigned to "Player 2". Using this method, it is feasible : : to have a PS/2 trackball (Imperial PS/2 arcade trackball comes to mind) and dual : : spinners connected to a PC without using an additional interface! " : : Thanks for the info! : Yes, the Optimouse drivers only assign the second mouse to Player 2. If you want both devices (trackball & spinner) to be associated with Player 1 under DOS, then you DO need a dual DOS mouse driver. You can download that from my website. : --OSCAR
