OK, I stand corrected than. But did he try a compatibility mode to
possiby fix it? I didn't download that list because it was an .exe
file.

That wasn't limited to XP. I had the erratic mouse problem also in Windows
2000...

Aha! Still no concrete evidence then. 🙂

Try this SHOGO Faq: http://www.shogo-mad.com/faq/shogo.htm

The "evidence" is in my list up above. I could manually go through all
the games and list the differences and post them but what's the point?
There would still be no proof to back it up. The closest thing your
going to get is my list, which even though it's on a .xls, doesn't mean
it's true.
