What about the mouse? He has a driver too. Should I leave him off too until I get going?
I'll need it in Windows, but I'm sure I'll be rebooting enough times before I get that far.

Yes bistro. You are in my mind! https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
If Mr. mouse is a PS/2 or serial, Windows should pick it up. What kind is it? If an MS Intellimouse--Win 98 will provide everything; no need to put the floppy on. All other types (unless it's a fancy doo-dad like a Super-Cooled, Radium Powered Optical Telescopic AntiGravitational Magna-Mouse) should work with the "generic" mouse drivers in Win 98. Any fancy programs that came with a mouse should be added later after the basic install is done and any "glitches" ironed out, if any.
Micro Innovations It's a serial mouse. He and the keyboard came from "little sweety" the old 386. I'll use those 'till I get the fancy mouse...later.
The mouse on this one is a Compaq and it had no drivers. I just plugged it in and it worked after rebooting. It's pretty new. But I don't know if it'll work with anything but Compaq without some sort of adapter...?
Windows should have all my drivers.
No externals until after I run all my tests and stuff like that And am happy with it.

Been up since 1am this morning working on an opportunity!! Have had 5 of these opportunities right in a row. Like computers better.
Train, the prices are almost as good as they will get; probably spots here and there. Bottom out maybe in three months looks like. Has her highness left anything to buy? https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

As I am using cable, read netcard, and will have 2 computers. I have been contemplating using a router to connect the two together and access the cable modem. Lead to understand it is easier than ICS in windows, has a firewall in it, and makes it harder to hack.

Train: Couldn't tell you about that router...know a little, but don't want to steer you wrong. Maybe someone over at the networking forum would know better.
QOH: Check your e-mail.
Greengoose1: Glad to see you're back. Take good care now.
And with that...must say Adieu; pretty pooped out myself...Nite!

You won't have use of the mouse--need to use the arrow keys.
