Author Topic: Desktop mouse (Read 493 times)

My desktop mouse pointer will sometimes display itself right in the center of my screen.

Kinda distracting to see that arrow and be able to do nothing with it. Shows in all views there after.

I have the full use and control of my AH mouse pointer BTW.

Have to get out and back into AHII because I still have the ALT+tab bug and lose video with it. (goes to a tan or light brown screen and stays there)

NOTE this also happens in AHI but I fix it with an ALT+tab and when I come back in the desktop mouse pointer is gone.

I have seen this problem before with an ATI card and older video or corrupt video drivers.

What video card is it?

Note I've had this problem with the mouse pointer since day 1 of AH.

Have AH 2.0 version on machine.

Mouse Pointer thiing happened yesterday, just suddenly appeared and after a few seconds disappeared????

Please note I still get the tan screen of AHII death if I alt+tab! Used to happen before the announced fix of the gamma adjustment when I adjusted gamma, still happens if i'm in AHII with video resolution reset and alt+tab.

Any thing I can do for this?
