Keyboard and mouse State Notes
Remapping
Mouse acceleration
This option seems to be problematic and is reverting to enabled state whenever the game is closed. Also, it seems to be broken if you try to change it while in-game and your changes to this setting might be ignored. To guarantee that it's actually off turn it off immediately upon launching the game.

Issues fixed

Game runs too fast / Mouse too sensitive

Limit the framerate

Limit fps to around 60, for example through "Rivatuner Statistics Server". Forced VSYNC through driver settings did nothing for me.

Use dgvoodoo2 Wrapper[citation needed]
  1. Download [1] dgvoodoo2.
  2. Copy D3D8.DLL from the \MS\x86\ folder to the game install directory.
  3. Set monitor on 60hz
