About 1 year ago I put together some great mouse routines for TP5.
They worked great except for 1 item that is.  They would not work 
well when I put my screen into VGA mode.  CGA/EGA they worked great,
but in VGA mode they would work such that the mouse pointer wouldn't
go beyound the 350 pixel on the screen (may have been only the 200, I
forget), and after a few seconds of moving the mouse around screen
the entire system would lock up (Go figure).  ANYway, has anyone had
experience in dealing with mouses and VGA mode?  Perhaps someone could
point out a consideration I forgot to take into consideration.
