Hi - just reinstalling this one due to windows reinstall and i have it working in dxwnd agian, but the mouse keeps just forcing itself to staying the bottom right corner - what settings can i tweak to fix this mouse issue ?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Likely it is a problem of DirectInput relative mouse handling. Unfortunately, the problem happens depending on the game and machine configuration in such a way that the configuration can be different.
If you don't have it, set "Hook DirectInput" + "Emulate mouse relative movement". If you have it already, unset these flags. If the game uses DirectInput8, use "Hook DirectInput*".
Let me know how it goes.

i can check - but under what tab are these settings? I was able to get the game running nicely with the render set to dx9 and SDL and using Rivatuner for frame rates, and with DDraw compat - using these things has made the mouse issue go away

Input tab.
I don't use anything other than primary surface since the results aren;t too reproducible so I can't comment
