Mouse driver brings smooth pointer support to Windows NT 3.x in VMs

Original: VMMouse for NT 3.x: QEMU/VMware mouse integration driver

A developer has released VMMouse for NT 3.x, a driver that adds QEMU and VMware mouse integration to Microsoft's early-1990s operating system. With it installed, the pointer moves seamlessly between guest and host without needing to click and release, as with modern virtual machines. The project is drawing attention from retrocomputing enthusiasts who enjoy keeping legacy Windows versions usable in emulators.

Why now: Retrocomputing fans are excited by a new tool that makes running a 30-year-old OS in modern virtual machines far more usable.
