The wheel didn't work, so I tried both of the setting suggested.  If you
have a ms wheel mouse don't make that mistake, it caused my monitor to
constantly switch resolutions (making a loud noise that made me worry) and
the only way to shut it down was to turn off the monitor and telnet from
another computer.  So I am back with the ExplorerPS/2 setting and no wheel
support, but my computer is all right.
