Hi all!

My new mouse moves very fast in some DOSBox (fullscreen) sessions. I have tried to tweak it via SENSITIVITY setting in SDL section of DOSBox.conf.

Problem is, that I can set SENSITIVITY to any value, but nothing happens. How can I change mouse sensitivity then?

I use DB v0.70.

First try with DOSBox 0.72.
Then tell us which operating system you use, and finally if this problem is with every game, or only a specific game.

OK, sorry for incomplete information. I am running Win XP and problems are with applications written with old (DOS) Turbo Pascal (7.0?). I don't know which driver do they use. I can try tu run some "game", but I don't know which one. I hope that TSOMI will be enough for try.

Another specification - problems are with my new wireless mouse, the old "cable" one runs fine (in the Turbo Pascal programs).

I tried The Secret of Monkey Island and both mices run with the same speed. So is it a driver issue?

OK, tried the 0.72 and if I change the sensitivity from 100 (original) to 1, then I am not really sure if it had any effect. I was expecting that the mouse should move veeerrrryyyy slowly.
