Hi everyone! I have a problem with my Logitech Series 9 serial mouse. It is working on different machines from DOS to Win95 but not under Win98 which won't recognize it. My other serial mice and a PS/2-Serial Combo mouse is working with Win98. Any ideas why it is just the Series 9? Greetings!

Ok i had time to poke around. 1. JP1-6 and 8-11 have no connection on pin 1; and are connected to gnd via 10k resistors. They only have an effect when i put them directly to gnd (1k also works). 2. JP7 and 12-15 are IRQ jumpers (LPT/COM) and go to the chip and irq-buslanes, without resistors. 3. …
