Hello, Experiencing a problem I cannot fix. While playing the game, I CAN scroll up, left and right... but I CANNOT scroll down. The only way to access any real estate south of my position is to use the small map in the tool bar frame. Any ideas or suggestions? SPWAW 45 Win 98 Tom

Hello. Some weeks ago I couldn't scroll to the right. I cleaned the interior of the mouse, and all gone O.K. :D Saludos.

A problem might be that you have the WindowsTaskMenu on Auto-hide and Always on Top, so when you move to the bottom of the screen not the game gets the movement but Windows tries to open the TaskMenu - which cannot get displayed because the game block it. Got the idea ?? murx

Thanks to Mikimoto and murx for their replies. Miki...The mouse is fine, I am quite sure the problem is not a dirty mouse. Murx brings up an excellent point, and I will look into it. Thanks again!! Tom

I have a reasonably fast computer (Pentium III, 750 MHz, 64 mb)and have never lost the ability to scroll completely. I have, however, have noticed the scrolling to become slow and choppy (not smooth). Not sure if this is caused by large numbers of units and/or large numbers of units concentrated in a relatively small portion of a given scenerio map. Could it be a memory issue??

Panzer Captain, I really don't think so! As I mentioned, scrolling is just fine if I scroll up, left, or right. Just can't scroll down. I did check into what a previous reply suggested, and made sure the task bar is not the culprit. I know I'm stumped on this one....
