The new Lexmark 3200 driver. Any difference?

Andy_25
I received an email from Lexmark saying that the Win2k 3200 drivers have been updated. As far as I can remember the date of the previous driver was 04/10/2000. This supposedly new one is 04/20/2000. Does anyone know what the difference is between the two, if any? The address is: The driver version of the new one is 1.

Help! No PS2 mouse on a dual setup..

Andree
I run a Win2k/Win 98 SE dual setup and I can't get W2k to recognize my ps2 mouse! Both ps2 and serial runs fine under 98 SE, but in W2k I can only install my serial (without scroll wheel. . . ). Please help me bring my beloved scroller to life! It would be much appreciated of course.

2 Quick HD related questions

BladeRunner
Hi, Two real quick questions I'm sure you guys will be able to answer. 1. Is ATA-4 the same as ATA-66? I bought a HD a while back that was advertised as ATA-66, when I have subsequently checked the specifications on the manufacturers web page I'm told it's ATA-4.

What Detonator 5.14 fixes

Preacher
Using Detonator 5. 13 I´ve not been able to run GLQuake (well, it ran, but rather slowly and with some of the most perverted distorted graphics I´ve ever seen). Downgrading to 3. 65 didn´t fix the problem either.
