If you need to do this for a stand alone machine (like a print server) it's best just to find a junker mouse, wind up the cord/cable with the mouse and tape it to the back of the machine and plug it in. You might go into control panel's device manager (with no mouse installed of course) by the keyboard method, highlight the mouse it shows, then delete or disable it. > -----Original Message----- > From: computertalkshop-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:computertalkshop-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of DavisUnit > Sent: Saturday, November 02, 2002 1:25 PM > To: computertalkshop@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [CTS] bypass windows mouse error? > > > > When there is no mouse attached to a pc and windows starts, it will give > an error message.
