Bios update
Where can I download ECS P4VMM2 V1.3 latest BIOS. I have one here that needs to be reflashed. Thanks
More than 100,000 BIOS strings in my database just now!

Many thanks to all. I got it and is now reflashed to latest. Thank you!
update:
The serial and PS/2 mouse ports are not working. Does it has something to do with BIOS update? When I try a serial mouse, it cannot detect. When PS/2 mouse is attached, it can detect but wont run, right click is also functioning. 3 serial mouse and 3 PS/2 mouse used about no progress. Any inputs?

Its the P4VMM2L.ROM since it has an on-board net card.
OK will try later bit busy lately. will post soon the result. Many thanx. But my next question is that, I installed a fresh Win98SE but still the problem exists. Any suggestions?
The link Kuriaki posted mentions fixes related to the PS/2 mouse, so since you have flashed the latest version you should be OK now according to this.
Did you install Windows fresh after you updated the BIOS and loaded defaults or before? If before another clean install may still help.
One test I like to do on a blank hard disk is to boot to a floppy and then try to run 98 Setup. I find if the mouse works on the first Windows setup screen it will work when Windows itself is running.

Thats the steps i foolowed before you post your suggestions. At first GUI screen during fresh install of Win98SE, the PS/2 is detected but only horizontal is OK vertical is sluggish. At the desktop, mouse function is still the same but the right click function is working.
OK will do that. Will post for the result very soon. Thnks
OK flashed the latest bios. Result ok Still the mouse at PS/2 port is not functioning well. I am now convinced that its a problem outside bios. Many thnx will look for solution for this type of problem. Many thnx to all.
Motherboard saved!
To be clear, have you followed these steps?
1) Update to latest BIOS as advised by Kuriaki.
2) Load BIOS defaults and make sure PS/2 ports for KB and mouse are enabled in BIOS.
3) Backed up any data required of hard disk, then formatted hard disk.
4) Peformed fresh installation of 98SE.
Make sure when you follow the above steps that you have a known good working keyboard and mouse. In one of your posts where you describe only horizontal mouse motion it sounds like the mouse itself may be defective. Also make sure you have the kb and mouse plugged into their corresponding PS/2 ports.
