Title: Win 7 64bit mouse hangs every now and then
Post by: Have on November 21, 2010, 03:17:00 PM

I recently upgraded my system and installed 64bit Win 7 (previously used 32bit) and now I keep having strange mouse hangup in AH. Ever now and then the mouse cursor in AH stops responding to mouse movement, though mouse works fine when I alt-tab back to windows.

The problem usually starts when I am typing to the text radio. Only cure what I know is to close AH by alt-f4 and restart.
This happens only in AH, no problems with any other software or game.

Any ideas how to fix this?

hitting "H" is the "mouse lock" key. You are most likely just locking the mouse. Hit H again to unlock.
