Make sure your networking card is using Enhanced Mode drivers.
If you're running Win95/98 Plus! and your cursor is a custom cursor, change it back to the default black and white arrow cursor.
 If all else fails, you may want to try reinstalling Myth II. If you have any saved games or films that you’d like to keep, copy the “save” and “recordings” folders from your Myth II directory to a safe place before you delete the game.
MacOS
If you’re experiencing inexplicable problems with Myth II, the first thing you should do is go to your Extensions Manager control panel and turn off ALL your non-Apple extensions and control panels. And yes, we do mean ALL of them; anything that wasn’t installed as part of your System Software could be the culprit. Recent versions of the Extensions Manager allow you to choose a setting called “MacOS base” or something similar, which will run only the very basic extensions and control panels. If you have a lot of non-Apple utilities and extensions running on your system, this is a quick and easy way to tell if they’re conflicting with Myth II. If you find that a certain control panel or extension causes problems with Myth II, use Extensions Manager to create an extension set without the problematic file and switch to that set whenever you want to play Myth II.
Virtual memory and utilities like RAM Doubler can slow Myth II down, which can have an especially deleterious effect in network games. Turn off virtual memory while playing Myth II.
Myth II loves RAM, so if you’ve got a lot of memory you may want to allocate some of it to the game. To do this, click once on the Myth II application on your hard drive and choose “Get Info” from the File menu. You can add RAM by increasing the number in the Preferred Memory Size box. Don’t change the Minimum Memory Size, and don’t allocate more RAM than you actually have installed on your Mac.
