My little sister kindly bought me this WarCraft II game for Christmas.
I'm trying to run it on my P120 under crusty Windows 95 (I usually
run Linux) but the mouse won't work.

The manual claims that Windows 95 (which I hate) has it's own mouse
drivers (which suck) and that to get around this problem I should
be able to simply reload my mouse driver and all should be fine.

Well all is not fine.  I did reboot into MSDOS mode and loaded my 
drivers (Logitech mouseman) and started the game from there and 
everything worked.  I played to first few levels (nice game) and
then saved.  Now nothing I do can get the mouse to work again.

I would appreciate any suggestions or solutions from people who
have had this problem.

I have tried running from Win95 dos prompt after reloading my mouse
driver so that's not a solution.  

My manual claims that there is support available from http://www.blizzard.com
but the site doesn't seem to be currently active.


cheers,


Peter
