Hi there,

Thaks for the response. I've not got access to the afore mentioned PC at the
moment but the next time I am there with it I will check out the modem.

I will add though that the USB keyboard works fine. In fact the mouse is a
USB mouse (as is the keyboard) and on first inspection they were both pluged
into the PS/2 ports with adaptors. I tried different configurations (eg.
plugging mouse via usb and keyboard ps/2) and the same result always
occured, the mouse never worked.

Any more information that I can be armed with before I revisit where the
broken PC is would be very helpful (it is a frineds system).

Kind regards

Dave
