Cannot scroll down

I cannot get the game to scroll down. Up, left and right are fine, but down will not work. Any ideas ? I tried scrolling with the arrow keys but no luck :(

Rhaak: Check scroll speed setting in the preference box, I use 3, lower number faster scroll. HTH

Scroll speed is not the problem. I have it set to 2. When I move the cursor to the bottom of the screen, the game does not scroll down.

That's one I've never heard before.
Are you playing it in a window, or full screen?

What happens when you click around the mini map?

Clicking on the mini-map works. But it is not ideal.

I should mention I'm running SPWAW in Oracle VM VirtualBox on my MacBook. I'm running in full screen 800x600 resolution. With Windows XP sp3 on the virtual machine.

PROBLEM SOLVED !!!!

I found the solution after some more searching.

You have to disable mouse integration in VirtualBox.

Now back to the war.
