The mouse pointer jump at the top of the screen when the dialog box opens
In the last few weeks my mouse pointer jumps sometimes extreme high (left side) of the FF browser window. Only happens in FF, Chrome or IE or any other application from Ms. The mouse to update drivers fees Reloaded, switched mouses, USB switch, ports switched to a mouse not MS - all to nothing does.
"It seems to happen most often when I mouse ' snap to" feature is turned on and that the pointer automatically moves to the default button in the dialog box.

Black screen with mouse pointer count on reboot after installing SP3
I tried to install Service Pack 3 on a PC running XP Home Edition (new installation).
Although Microsoft Update has finished installing SP3 and the computer reboots, I get the XP installation screen base with the message "Please wait...". ", which disappears after a few seconds, leaving me with a black screen with only the mouse pointer.
The mouse pointer moves then the PC broke down, well that no matter how long I leave nothing happens.
I tried to uninstall SP3 and do it again (when I Uninstall SP3, Windows starts very well) and also uninstall SP3 as well as my Antivirus and try the installation again. But whenever I'm just left whit black screen.
Try to update with the custom option. I had problems like this before. Usually you are missing a driver or something of this kind that makes you hang. To update while the custom option, with the exception of SP3. Reboot several times the installation of updates with the "Custom" option Once all updates have been installed except SP3, you can try SP3 and see what happens. This usually takes care of it when I have the same problem.

We are an OEM that systems of electronic Assembly is based, in our machine is a PC running Windows XP Professional that provides the interface for the operator. Some of our systems have begun to crash intermittently when stopping. Up to now we have seen it on three machines. There has been no change to hardware or drivers that we put on these machines.
The PC is supposed to stop at the point were he said "It is now turn off your computer", but it hangs when the only thing on the screen is the default windows background and the mouse pointer. The mouse moves, but that's all. He is unresponsive to ctrl-alt-delete, or any other entry.
This was reported 5 times, and in any case there's nothing in any log file which would tend to indicate where the problem is maybe.
I guess we have a bad driver or device, but the problem only happens once all stops of 5-10, and only after the machine is turned on for a while.
I just turned on the detailed status messages, but they did not stop the machine since.
What I asked is: is it possible to get windows to connect to all events stop? I really want to know what he was doing when he stopped. Can someone else think something I can look at, or a better way to debug this?
Re: a suggestion on this new monitor to 'prove' is the source of the problem

If it IS, delete it & uninstall the sw provided with touch screen
Reboot in normal mode

Windows Vista starts with only a black screen with the mouse pointer.
Saturday, 02/27/10, I left my laptop (Dell Inspiron 1405 E) because I used Studio to produce a couple of videos. When I got up in the morning, he himself had closed. I tried to put on normally, and he said: recovery error windows, then on lists: Launch Startup Repair tool and start windows normally. I tried to do a repair, but it just comes back to the same screen. When I try to boot normally, it shows the progress on the background as usual bar, but then he comes up to a black screen with a mouse pointer. When I run one of the many diagnostic tests, it is said that the BIOS cannot find the operating system loader. I'm pretty adept at computers, but nothing I've tried before reinstalling Vista works. I have files that I need to keep it on the computer, and only a few of them are saved. Please help me soon, as I need for my school musical production on Thursday.

Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all hotfix is usually a hit or miss

adds to the difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect.

Mouse pointer jumps around on Windows 7 VM
How to make it behave?
I have a Windows 7 VM with VMware tools installed.These preferences are set:
- Take the keyboard and mouse input on the click of the mouse.
- Automatically capture and ungrab the mouse.
- Hide the cursor to ungrab.
- Optimize the mouse for games: never
Often, the mouse pointer passes to a new spot when I click it. For example, without exit fullscreen VM, I click on the center of the screen one pointer jump upward or sometimes low. Click once again, the same thing. I tried to uncheck Hide toolbar without result.
In addition, the virtual machine is maximized on my second monitor, if I move outside it to my main monitor mouse may not work. In other words, if I click on an object, say Outlook, nothing happens. It is as if the mouse is not there; the click does not happen.
This does not happen with my XP VM. On the virtual Windows 7 machine, Windows is not activated yet.
I gave up and created new WMs. They work very well.
Remove the old VMs of misconduct.

Maybe it's the menu of bookmarks? You can activate the menu bar in Firefox by:- By clicking on '3' menu bar

Placing the cursor on the Favorites button on the toolbar is more open automatically, but it opens when I click.

How can I solve a problem witht my mouse pointer when it gets to the very big chance?
When I use Firefox, at seemingly random times, my mouse pointer becomes suddenly extra-large. The only 'solution' that I found is to restart the computer.
Hello
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. As this feature has been added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there are still some problems.
You will have to perhaps restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).
Then perform the following steps:
- Click on the orange top left Firefox button, then select the 'Options' button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to tools > Options.
- In the Firefox options window, click the Advanced tab, and then select 'General '.
- You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.
- Now restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
In addition, please check the updates for your graphics driver by following the steps in the following knowledge base articles:

Hi all
I'm running 10 FF and my mouse pointer does not work, when I hover over a link/image, the pop up box that normally comes with a description in it does not appear.
It only works in safe mode. I tried to restart FF with all add-ons disabled but it did not work, I manually disabled all add-ons but it still does not work, it only works when I'm in safe mode.
All Extensions and Plugins are currently disabled, but I still have this problem.
No idea how I can solve this problem?
Thank you.
Thank you, it seems like a problem with the Intel HD 3000 graphics, I double graph on my laptop and changed to make FF use nvidia graphics in place and now the mouse works perfectly.

Satellite M500 - Mouse pointer disappears when you play games online
I have a brand new, custom configured M500 form Toshiba. It has Windows 7 Professional Enterprise, 64-bit edition. Everything worked great until I spent a lot of money on the game Star Trek Online. When I go in the game, the mouse pointer disappears. I can see on the screen change action items when the mouse hover over them but no pointer. It makes the game difficult. Then I tried another game online, Free Realms, and I have the same problem.
I use a Logitech V220 Wireless mouse. I uninstalled the Logitech driver to see if that was the issue. I allowed Windows to use the default driver provided with the system. It does not work.
I called Toshiba and they had me remove the device and selected Windows generic driver for that. It works no more. The guy on the line said it would enter my service call and that she would go to a senior technician and they would call me within 24 hours. It has been two weeks and not a glance.
Anyone else has this problem or know of any other way I can try to solve it?
Hello
To me that sounds like this, there is a problem (incompatibility) between this online game and your external mouse...
In your case I remove the mouse and uninstall the driver. Run CCleaner to clean the registry. Now try the touchpad online.More update the display and DirectX as Al - eX driver already written.
