* Some studies suggest that long periods of repetitive motion, *
* coupled with an improper work environment and incorrect work *
* habits, may be linked to certain types of physical discomfort *
* or injury. These include carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), *
* tendinitis, and tenosynovitis. It is important to follow all *
* instructions carefully. Failure to do so may result in CTS, *
* tendinitis, or tenosynovitis. These instructions may not only *
* help minimize your chances of experiencing one of these *
* conditions, but will also help you to work more comfortably *
* and effectively. Ensuring that your chair, work surface, and *
* the placement of the mouse are in the correct positions is *
* important. In addition, you should take frequent breaks to *
* avoid sitting in the same position for extended periods of *
* time. See the end of this README for more important ergonomic *
* information. *

The following changes are made to your system if you set up the
software using all the default conditions during the mouse Setup
program (default directory is c:\mouse).
For the mouse driver in MS-DOS, Setup makes the following changes:
set mouse=c:\mouse
c:\mouse\mouse.exe
device=c:\mouse.sys
For the mouse driver in Windows, Setup makes the following changes:
groupn=c:\mouse\mouse.grp
(where n = group number and \mouse=mouse directory)
c:\mouse\pointer.exe
Setup supports only hard disk systems and floppy disk systems
with two drives. If you are installing files onto a floppy disk
system that has only one drive, you must decompress and copy the
files manually. EXPAND.EXE, a file-decompression program, is
provided on the Setup disk for this purpose.
mouse
mousemgr
c:\mousepwr.com
\mouse\mousepwr.com

Exercises
Gently press your hands against a table, stretch, and hold for five
seconds. Stretch and massage your fingers, hands, wrists, and forearms
throughout the day. Gently shake your hands and fingers to relieve
tension and help blood flow. Rotate your shoulders in a full forward
circle four times. Then roll them backward four times. Then rotate
each shoulder separately four times. Do this at least twice daily.
Organize your work so that you alternate using your computer with
other activities. Try to use different muscle groups throughout the
day. Get up and walk around several times a day.
Position the mouse at the same height as your keyboard. If you can,
try to avoid light sources that can reflect on the surfaces of your
mouse and keyboard. Use your entire arm to move the mouse around
on your desktop whenever possible. The Microsoft Mouse is designed
so that you can rest your hand on it whenever possible, and so that
you don�t have to grip it unusually hard when using it. Avoid
excessive tension in your hand by relaxing -- don�t pinch the
mouse too hard.
