Has anyone manged to get Cannon Fodder working on Windows 2000. When I
install it, the video is OK but I ahve no control over the big mouse
pointer. I have the normal Windows mouse pointer which moves as expected,
but the one driven by the game does not move at all.

TIA

Thanks, DOSBOX works OK, but there is no sound. I've been through the web
site, FAQs etc, but can't get any sound working, which is quite crucial in
Cannon Fodder. Any ideas please.

TIA

Try .action or the DosBox forums.
