my specs:
Windows 98SE 600MHZ 128MB of RAM 11MB of video ram.
Intel graphics card

What version? Did you try an update?
Try clicking it on the taskbar-what happens?
Try something that does not end in a
Code (glbasic) Select
SHOWSCREEN
MOUSEWAIT
a sample game e.g.

Really strange...

tried a game example and the same happens
I also did a web update, same thing

I cant click on the taskbar because the mouse pointer disapears

Totally strange - try Alt+Tab, to see if you can switch to that program.
How do you quit the program? With the task manager?
I've never heard of that before, but I'll get rid of it if you help me.

O.K. usually I do use the task manager to get rid of the program

I tried Szero but it said I didnt have the licence for the OBJ loader which is OK

then I tried meteroids3d and it said:
compile+link...
gcc.exe: C:\PROGRAM FILES\GLBASIC\Compiler\platform\gpc_temp.cpp: No such file or directory

Kitty Hello

if you don't have a license key, try the meteorids game, or any of the 2D games shipped.
Or try this:

Code (glbasic) Select
WHILE TRUE
   MOUSESTATE mx,my,b1,b2
   PRINT "MOUSE", mx, my
   SHOWSCREEN
WEND

Found the / a bug. In the new update 2.50513 it is fixed. Please tell me if it works for you.
Sorry for the delay, had a lot of other things to fix (see logfile).
