Yes you read right....Worms on Windows 98. We couldnt get it to work on Windows Vista so we used Virtual PC and installed it on a windows 98 machine. The only problem we are having is that for some reason it seems like the mouse is SUPER sensitive It is almost impossible to move around the screen because the moues just keeps going in whatever direction you move it in. Second, It is not possible to go inside any of the selection boxes....such as if you right click to select a weapon, you can make the mouse move around the outside of the weapons box but you can not move inside to select something...same thing if you hit escape...you cant move inside that box. Any suggestions? I thought you could be since we are running Windows 98 in virtual pc but everything else on the 98 seems to be working perfectly...only these aspects of worms which makes it impossible to play! Any suggestions
PS we did try turning the mouse sensitivity allll the way down...that helped none

Try doing one of the following:
a) disable mouse pointer integration in your virtual machine's options
b) uninstall virtual machine additions' mouse driver from Device Manager
c) uninstall virtual machine additions completely
