| 100185 | 2002-11-21 06:44:00 | This sounds a bit weird but here goes... I'm sure that this hasn't been happening long, but when I point to the left hand side of the screen the mouse pointer dissappears completely. Pointing to the right hand side, top and bottom there appears to be an invisible wall to stop the pointer dissappearing completely. Even more odd is that on the left hand side, right down by the start button, the "invisible wall" seems to be working and as I travel up about 4cm from the start button it then slides completely away. It gives the feeling of not having a mouse pointer from time to time as it takes quite a big movement to get it back onto the screen. Running Windows XP - 16" screen (PC Direct) its about 5yrs old- the same behaviour occurs on all our games and Office applications Has anyone else got this? Any ideas for "building back that invisible wall"?? |
