That gets the mouse pointer back for a moment. Actually, I do get the mouse long enough to click . It desappears after that. But since the window is too short to see the buttons that come in the next screen, I'd be stuck even if I had a pointer. Dragging the edge of the window will let me magnify …

I get half the installation scren in the dosbox window. The buttons that I need to click are not on the screen. Further, dosbox seems not to recognize my mouse. As soon as I click anywhere inside dosbox, the pointer goes away and doesn't come back until I hit Alt-Tab or Ctl-Escape to get back to XP …

Well, I tired copying the whole CD to an XP folder, and that got me a little farther. But dosbox doesn't seem to accept my mouse and besides, the first screen of the install is cut off in the middle so even if the mouse was available I wouldn't be able to click the appropriate button.

I'd like to run Master of Magic in XP. Somebody in another thread said dosbox was the way to do it. But MOM won't even install in XP and dosbox doesn't see my CD drive. What should I do?

Maybe it an overflow-avoidance thing. Or a backwards compatability and accretion thing.

So the 8 parameters are all equivalent? It looks like it just multiplies them all together and devides by 10^8.

Nicht Sehr Gut and Stiletto, Greg (don't know the last name) who makes Throttle is working on a version of Throttle that will work with my chipset. He says the chipset is Ali M15x3. My fg.bat now reads: :begin old games hacks :Long Live VOGONS! cd \utils :enable video with Ali chipset nolfb :fix SSI …

I thought Virtual PC was a Mac-only thing. Where can I find it?

Thanks, Snover. Now if I can stop the runaway scrolling, life will be complete.

So mousectl is supposed to be loaded in autoexec.nt? I'm trying that, but it's not doing anything. Do I need to restart Windows? Also, is there any documentation on what each of the 8 parameters are?

Well, I give up for now. moslo doesn't slow down the scrolling and between having to move the mouse a mile to cross the screen on the one hand and having to lightning-fast move it on and off the edge of the screen in order to only overshoot by 100% rather than 300%, it's not worth it. I find myself …

I assume the sound is coming directly from the CD, because if I open the drawer, the sound stops immediately, even though the game does not.

Thank you. It (sort of) works now. I still have 2 issues: 1) The mouse barely moves. I have to move it what should be several screens worth just to move to a button. 2) I haven't gotten this far, (I've only been to the campaign startup screen and quit) but I know that on the battle screen I won't be …

I get a black screen (but ths sound is fine) when I try to run Fantasy General. I'm running XP Home on an HP Pavillion. Video Card: Trident Video Accelerator CyberBlade-XP v.6.4022-003L.69 Driver Version: 5.1.2627.0134 CPU: Mobile AMD Athlon 4 It tests at 949 MHz and was sold as 1GHz. I don't know …
