Keith, <<1. >> check your e-mail <<2. When we display a 640×480 animation in full screen using the aaplay.dll, Borland C++ ignores the mouse move events in our screen saver program. This problem only exists with full loading the animation as full screen. >> When the Animator PLayer uses its full screen mode, it makes its calls directly to the BIOS of the video card, bypassing the Windows drivers entirely. I think this also means that it bypasses any Windows event signals, like mouse movements. IN the WIN.INI file, there is the entry "FullScreen=AAVGA.DLL" in the [aaplay animation] section.You might experiment with removing either that entry or file and see if produces results you can work with. -Brian
