Old Mouse Bug Reappears
« on: December 14, 2009, 11:34:46 PM »
Yesterday, after upgrading to 217 patch 3, I started AH only to find that my mouse didn't work at the opening screen. I have never seen this problem before, so I did a search here and found the Alt+Tab solution from last August. It works for me, but is there going to be a fix for this? Any other reports of it happening with Patch 3?

What about pressing H?

my patch 3 was fine. However I did have some trouble with my mouse freezing before but H used to solve the problem.

Experience in the TA has shown me a lot of the time the mouse problems are caused by outside macro programs, either joystick or keyboard based. I've recommended to a few people to add a 'H' at the end of the macro string to reset the mouse for use.
