xp compatability

Had problems with icons on the start screen. Had a look and found others with this problem. As far as I can see nobody had posted a fix. I had a little mess around and here is what to do.

Right click the icon on desktop and run the game in win2000 compatability mode. Also, disable visual themes. OK the settings and run game.

Thanks so much for this advice, I was about to give up and send the ganme back after tearing my hair out with this problem. I thought it may have been a mouse problem (I use an USB one and was in the process of finding a PS2 one to try.) because somehow I managed to get 2 mouse cursors!!!

I tried the compatibility thing, for Windows 95 & 98 - never tried 2000!! Lesson learnt, try EVERY option no matter how unusual.

Thanks again for this help.
