Steven Spielberg Director's Chair

Post by janguldvog »

After quite a bit of work, I managed to install this, using Windows 98SE as guest OS.

The only trouble, that I have?
Normally, taking the cursor to the edge of the screen (horizontally) would make me move, either to the left, or, to the right.

Instead I get something that looks like a movie icon, nothing happens!
I have to use the command [m] to get up the places, that I can go to!

Any good ideas? :D

The only thing I can think of would be to change the pointing device from PS/2 to USB tablet, but I wouldn't keep my hopes high. A VM has never been a good gaming platform, especially for games that were used to take over the whole computer.

Also, make sure to read the following chapter from the User Manual, or you could up end with more problems than what you have right now: ch. 12.3.10 USB Tablet Coordinates Wrong in Windows 98 Guests.
