Dell 5000e Install Serial mouse

I have an old Dell 5000e laptop running Win 98 and i can't install a Microsoft serial mouse.

It does not detect as plug and play and whatever Microsoft mouse I try to install will not install.

My touchpad works fine and a PS2 mouse works fine.

Any help would be appreicated.

Thanks.

Serial devices are rarely plug and play - you will need to load a driver for it.

Thanks for your reply. Where can I download a driver to try the install?

Microsoft would be the place to look.

I can't find a driver for it there. Any other suggestions?
