Generic Mouse driver

I installed DOS 6.22 on a 486DX 233mh. motherboard along with windows 3.1 OS The mouse (serial) does not work. The mouse has no name to try and find a driver.

Is there a simple way to get the mouse to be recognized?

 

Windows 3.1 came with a default PS/2 mouse driver.
Sometimes the IRQ setting with the mouse may conflict with another device installed on your motherboard - most often the modem.
To resolve this IRQ conflict:

1. In the Main group, choose the Control Panel icon.

2. In the Control Panel window, choose the Ports icon.

3. In the Ports dialog box, select the COM port for the mouse. Normally the mouse is eaither on COM1 or COM2.

(The mouse uses a different driver for MS-DOS-based applications than
it does for Windows-based applications.
Do not install a modem on COM3 if you have a mouse on COM1, or a modem
on COM4 if you have a mouse on COM2 - unless your machine or serial I/O
card supports IRQ sharing.)

and then choose the Settings Button.

4. In the Settings dialog box, choose the Advanced button.

5. Open the Interrupt Request Line (IRQ) list box, and select 12 (this is the default PS2 mouse IRQ.

6. Choose the OK button twice to exit the settings dialog boxes, and
then choose the Close button to exit the Ports dialog box.

You may need to reboot the computer, but this should solve the problem (if it is a IRQ conflict, as I suspect).
