Drag to Flag
What is the purpose of this and how do you use it to speed your game?
The software box said "Intel Pentium 4 or better required" so I bought a Mac.
However you don't HAVE to flag (mark gems) , technicaly all you need to do is find every safe square.
The folks that are crazy fast at minesweeper don't flag very often. I on the other hand have a need to flag
If you have a two button mouse on your mac, you'll find that the fastest way to flag, if you feel more comfortable marking.

From the Options screen, I de-select (uncheck) drag to flag. Drag to flag is disabled while I play the game. I exit the game to do something else.
When I run the game again (whether the same day or a different day and whether I reboot or not), no matter which of the 3 games I play, drag to flag is enabled, and the entry is checked when I look at the Options screen.
I've un-installed the game, cleaned the registry to remove all entries for Dangerous Mines, re-booted, defragged, re-booted again and then re-installed the game.
The result is the same. Drag to Flag is only disabled if I go to Options and de-select it. When the game is run again, it is selected again.
Great game! One of my favorites!
