Connecting a pointing device

If you have a standard ADB (Apple Desktop Bus) one-button mouse or other pointing device, you can simulate the behavior of a two-button PC mouse using keys on your keyboard. For more information, see the section “Using a Pointing Device” in Chapter 4.

You can also use an ADB multibutton mouse or other pointing device and configure it to work as a PC mouse. To use a multibutton pointing device in the PC environment, you need to install the appropriate software. See the manual that came with your computer and pointing device for more information.

You can connect a pointing device to any available ADB port (marked with V) on your Macintosh computer.

Pointing devices designed specifically for a PC are not recommended for use with your Macintosh computer.

Connecting a MIDI device

You can connect a MIDI (musical instrument digital interface) device to the game controller port that comes on some models of the PC Compatibility Card. To connect a MIDI device, you need a Sound Blaster–compatible MIDI-to-joystick adapter (available from your computer dealer). For instructions on connecting devices to the joystick port, see the next section, “Connecting a PC Game Controller.”
