Must use arrow keys to play game. This is doable and I still enjoy the game. Tried windowed and regular with same results. Any ideas greatly appreciated. Also add I've played COI and other CC games on new machine with no scrolling issues.

Status: offline 		Does the scroll speed setting in the game options have any influence on the mouse edge scrolling speed?

Status: offline 		I don't recall any other reports of something like this -- it could be a mouse sensitivity issue but I would expect other games to be effected the same way if so. Do you have any mouse-related utilities / tracking software installed? You might try turning that off temporarily and see if that effects things.

Does drag-scrolling the map with the mouse also happen too fast? Try left-click and hold on the battlefield map until you get a 'grab' icon, then move the mouse around with the left button held down.

Cheers

Max frame rate was turned off. Set it to 50fps and voila fixed! Nice. You can learn something every day if you try Thanks guys.
