I could get the list box to come up before without a mouse. It's just when I
started trying to turn the background to black that it crashed my system. I
called install_mouse() and install_timer(), but the screen just went to
black and then when I pressed escape, my PC rebooted. Any other ideas?

Thanks,
Brian
