It looks as if your (undescribed) motherboard doesn't suffer from the sio bug I was expecting. Let's see the complete output of dmesg. Don't type it in: do this: $ dmesg > /tmp/foo Then move the file /tmp/foo to your Microsoft box and attach it to your reply. Are you sure you have the BIOS parameters set up correctly? What happens if you try to use the mouse on /dev/ttyd1 (and plug it into the correct connector)?
