Game: Strategic Command v1.7 purchased retail Problem: The game "locks up" (mouse still controls cursor, but no buttons respond). There is no particular time when this happens accept that it always occurs when I click a button "any button can do it" and the button visually "stays clicked". Once this happens, I can't quit the game, or even shut down my PC normally. I have also noticed my screen fickering some. P.S. I "think" my sound is already set to 1. Also, I don't care if I have any sound at all, if that helps. OS: Windows 98 second edition.
