So it isn't working right in Win 95 either now?
I couldn't find any fixes mentioned in a search at Googlegroups. I did see one thread that mentioned the same problem though. So I don't think your copy is worse than anyone else's. I don't know why you were able to play it before and not now unless you changed some of the hardware or drivers on your computer.
Do you have a background program running that might be conflicting with it? Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling? According to
Mr. Bill\'s Troubleshooting Guide , scroll mice cause problems with some older games. I can't remember if the mouse I played the game with had a scroll wheel or not.
