SUMMARY

The Microsoft Mouse Driver for MS-DOS, versions 6.10 and later, provides full support for PS/2 VGA display modes. This includes support for the 320 x 200 256 color mode. The driver displays either the default mouse- arrow cursor or a custom-mouse cursor. Use Mouse Driver Function 9 to define the screen and cursor masks to design custom-mouse pointer shapes.

Like the other 320 x 200 graphics display modes, the mouse cursor is an 8 x 16 pixel array.
