I noticed that too in the example programs included with Allegro. If you use DOS mode 
instead of a DOS box in Windows and load in a dos mouse driver, it will work fine. I 
also noticed that the timing for the MIDI music is off under Windows 95 - it must be 
because the timers are less accurate that way. Btw, my computer is a amd486dx4-120
