Have just discovered that when on 98 and I try to right click any program, instead of a menu I get a round white button with little arrows one points upward and the other downward and they are separated by a dot.
I cannot access any programs by right clicking. Might this be the answer to my posted game problem? Also what can I do to reverse this situation re right clicking and not getting the proper menu?
Have a win98 toggled with winXP 2002
Win98 is used only for games so not connected to
internet or printer etc.
Am playing game Sanitarium on 98 that has two cursor settings: arrow to move characters
magnifying glass to examine things
Had no problem until now after having solved a puzzle have discovered that I no longer have an arrow cursor setting so that I cannot move about in the game - can only examine things, listen to character talk about what he sees.
Any ideas/suggestions what might have happened? Did I do something that might have caused this?
