Mac user, mouse speed

Post by misterluke »

Hullo all, desperate for a bit of help here. Finally got Steel Panthers working on my MacBook via CrossOver, but alas alas the mouse cursor is massively sluggish and doesn't work at all. Is it possible to fix this in the mouse speed preferences, or am I to be forever thwarted? Any help would be much appreciated.

Another possibility would be to set the CrossOver Bottle to Windows 2000, or Windows 98, both of which are supported.
Hope that helps.
