Whenever I try to plan or execute a burglary, when I click on the button which takes me to that screen (where I move my character with the up, down, left and right keys) the screen goes gray and I can't exit the game. Tried everything, from CTRL+ALT+DEL to CTRL+ESC or ALT+TAB. The only thing I can do is to reset my computer. Does anyone know how to solve this ?

NOTE: I am unable to use DOSBox, so don't suggest it k:

You could be just the man I am looking for.

What connection do you have?

In order to have the mouse work in DOS Mode you need a mouse driver. Some programs have their own Mouse drivers, but if it doesn't have one included you can download one from an alternate source.

Here's a link to just such a source: http://www.softwarepatch.com/utilities/msd...ecdownload.html
