enable the mouse when the PC is initially booted.

If you have switched off your AdderView or you are attempting to ‘hot plug’ it into a
system that is already running, you may be able to restore lost mouse movement
using the AdderView's mouse restoration functions.

Mouse restoration functions should be used with care as unpredictable
results may occur if the wrong mouse type is selected. If in doubt restore the
mouse by powering down the PC normally.

Standard PS/2 mouse data uses a different data format to IntelliMouse data and so
two reset functions are provided on the AdderView. The type of data format
expected by the PC depends upon the driver and the type of mouse that was
connected when the driver was booted. The following table may be used as a guide.
Note that the mouse reset functions predict the likely mouse resolution settings but
may not restore the speed or sensitivity of the mouse exactly as they were when the
PC originally booted.
