i just downloaded arena, and i'm having problems getting past the character creation page. my mouse won't move on this page, but when i push esc. to go forward it gives me two options save stats or reroll, now i can move my mouse between these to options but when i choose one it says must use all bonus points and my mouse freezes again? can anyone help me out? please, i want to play this game so badly!

Assuming you're doing the proper thing and playing the game through DOSbox: have you locked the mouse using CTRL+F10?

Try switching between full and window mode. Maybe it's a common problem with the newer versions of dosbox, I had it, too.
