And I have heard of others not quite as common. Can't recall them off hand.

About the mouse, I can offer only the generic suggestion of trying to use Ctrl-F10, if Dosbox hasn't already captured it. Or checking out the install program and the hardware configuration to see if the mouse is enabled under "Game Interface Options". The options/names on your version may vary of course.

I too have the same problem using the mouse as well as sound running MOO with DosBox. The mouse problem would be great to fix especially because I downloaded DosBox just for this game.
If someone could help out that would be great.
I am running ME with a logitech mouse through usb if that helps??

did you configure the game to use a mouse ?
as it's an option in install.exe.
if you select it then it works fine.

i have just started running moo with dosbox and defend. it's running fine but just seems to be running slow. e.g. response to mouse clicks and screen transitions. is there a simple way to try and speed it up?

People are asking stuping question about speed very often... Even when there is almost everywhere written about it... They just cannot read or are lazy to do it.. You are not 75% lazy but 99%...
And behave to people who provide you something for free unless you are better than them (QBix is one of the two main developers of DOSBOX).

Check out the DOSBox Guides section - there's even a guide titled "how to speed up DOSBox". There's also a sticky post in DOSBox General and DOSBox Games/Apps that says "READ DOSBOX GUIDES FORUM"
