Problem

Symptoms: The customer's computer locks if the TrackPoint II mouse is activated after entering WP. Solutions: This problem occurred on an IBM PS/Note Model 425 laptop (WPINFO displays it as a Model 70). The customer worked around the problem by using the keystroke commands to enter Setup and autoselecting MOUSE.COM each time WP is launched but before touching the mouse lever (a little red button in the middle of the keyboard). However, the machine still locks if the View mode is changed between Graphics or Text. The problem was resolved by adding the NOMOVEXBDA parameter to EMM386.EXE in the CONFIG.SYS file. (Please refer to memo 27916H in the WP60 infobase for more information.)
