Does anyone know if it's possible to adjust something to make the mouse cursor move slower in DOSBox games? I know you can speed up (or slow down) everything by adjusting CPU cycles, but I don't want anything else to change. It's just that in a lot of my DOSBox games (I'm playing LOTR right now and it's a real PITA) the cursor moves so fast it's hard to control. LOTR had an in-game setting to slow the scroll speed down but no in-game adjustment for the cursor speed.

Again, I just want to slow the mouse cursor down while not affecting anything else. Is that possible?

There is a sensitivity setting, but I don't know how well it works.

Yep, that did the trick! THANK YOU so much! May I gift you a game as thanks? Maybe there's something on sale or something you've been wanting?

I'm glad it worked. Thanks, it's very nice of you to even think about that, but it's unnecessary. :)
