ABOUT YOUR MOUSE
1.1 An Introduction to your new Belkin
NetMaster™Scroll Mouse
The Belkin NetMaster™Scroll Mouse offers you ease of use
on the Internet, eliminating the need for scroll bars. You can
scroll smoothly through your documents or Web Pages,
browsing them quicker and more efficiently. Imagine, with
the simple movement of the scroll wheel, you can glide
effortlessly through Web Pages and long documents, without
having to remove your pointer from the document itself.
Also, by eliminating this simple task, you can add to the
lifetime of your mouse by reducing natural wear and tear.
Not to mention the reduced tension on your wrist from
excessive, repetitive movement to the scrollbars. Internet
surfing couldn't be easier!
Once the software has been loaded onto your computer, the
center button of your mouse (the wheel) can be programmed
to perform the same tasks as:
"Left Button Double Click"
"F1" through "F12"
"Enter" Key
"Page Up" Key
"Page Down" Key
"Home" Key
"End" Key
These can be used in place of your scrolling options.

1.2 Connecting Your Mouse
Your mouse connects to either a PS/2 (or 6 pin MiniDIN) mouse
port or a 9-pin serial port. To check, look in the back of you
computer for the port that is designated for your mouse. Most
PCs will have the word MOUSE marked next to the PS/2
connector. Older PCs will have either Serial 1 (and up) or COM
1 (and up) for the serial connector. If you are still unsure, please
refer to your hardware manual.
For PS/2 mouse port installation, simply remove the serial
adapter before connecting the mouse cable to the computer.
a. Locate the computer PS/2 mouse port or Serial port on the
back of your computer.
b. Plug your mouse into the appropriate port suggested
above. Check the box in which your mouse was shipped to
verify the ports supported.
c. If applicable, tighten down the connector thumbscrews.
d. Turn your computer on. At this point, your mouse will work
with the built in Microsoft®Operating System. To use the
extra features of your middle button, you must install the
included software.

3. Troubleshooting
Q: When installing the software, which driver should I
choose? The PS/2 Mouse on COM1 or Serial Mouse
on COM2?
A: If you are using a PS/2 mouse (refer to section 1.2) then
the driver must state that it is using a PS/2 driver. If you
are using a Serial mouse (refer to section 1.2) then the
driver must state that it is using a Serial driver on COM1
or COM2.
Q: I can get into Windows®or into "Safe Mode" but I
cannot use the mouse.
A: If you have more than one driver, this could be causing
your computer to boot in safe mode or not allow your
mouse to work at all. If you are using a PS/2 mouse then
the driver must state that it is using a PS/2 driver. If you
are using a Serial mouse then the driver must state that it
is using a Serial driver on COM1 or COM2. If you have a
Serial Mouse and you are not sure whether you are using
COM1 or COM2 then try moving the mouse to another
serial port on the back of your computer, (most computers
have two, if you have only one then it will more than likely
be COM1). If you have more than one driver then you
must remove the excess drivers.
Q: If I have more than one mouse driver how do I remove
the driver without the mouse control? How do I boot
into normal Windows®mode?
A: Use your "Windows®"Key at the bottom left hand corner
of your keyboard if you have one; if not, press "Alt + S" to
go to the "Start" button in Windows®95. Then use your

you want.

use an external mouse. Try looking in your CMOS or BIOS
in order to disable the onboard mouse. If you do not have
this option or do not know how to get into your BIOS or
CMOS, please follow the instructions in your computer
manual or call the computer dealer/technical support for
your computer.
