Mouse Flashing while running a Full-screen Applica
« on: June 08, 2005, 09:13:53 PM »
First off...  Hello!

Ok...  I'm having a problem with my mouse pointer on-screen...  When I'm running a full screen application (i.e. Half-Life, Everquest, Doom, etc. etc.) the mouse is invisible unless you are moving it and then it blinks and has a sort of box-looking thingie...

In case this helps here are my computer stats:
Windows XP Home Edition
200 Gig HDD
nVidia GeForce4 6800 Ultra 256 MB
nVidia nForce2 Chipset
Microsoft 3-Button (w/Wheel) Optical Mouse

If anymore info is need please let me know...

Thanks ahead of time   ^^

Is the mouse not supposed to be hidden when you are running a full-screen application?

Nonetheless, have you attempted to update or reinstall mouse drivers?

Have you tagged any settings in the Mouse menu that are not set by default?
