SYMPTOMS

When using the Z-Nix SuperMouse and SuperTracker control panel, you may receive the following message when trying to load the Windows 3.1 Control Panel: 

   Cannot Find STRAKCP.DLL
After choosing OK, the following message appears: 

   Cannot Load STRAK.DRV
To solve this problem, copy the STRAKCP.DLL file from the Mouse directory to your Windows SYSTEM subdirectory.

MORE INFORMATION

The Z-Nix SuperMouse has a Windows utility called SuperTrack. This is a separate mouse control panel that controls acceleration and sensitivity for the Z-Nix mouse. This utility is similar to the POINTER.EXE used with the Microsoft Mouse driver version 8.2.

If not setup correctly, the files are placed into the Mouse subdirectory rather than your Windows SYSTEM subdirectory.

The products included here are manufactured by vendors independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding these products' performance or reliability.
