Could you just try a USB keyboard and mouse instead of PS/2 ones? I
don't
know enough about USB to know how separately it's handled in the chipset
from the standard ports.

ASadly I am already short of USB ports, and not sure if 98 supports USB
k/b and mouse.


It does. This very mousie is running under 98 and is USB. 95 doesn't. 98
supports USB I and USB II.

Try a serial mouse instead.
