MOUSE WON'T SHOW WHEN I ALT TAB

Post by xXxwEEd420xBRICKx420wEEdxXx »

I don't want to see any "THEN DONT ALT TAB" comments, if you could help it. Tabbing out has always worked fine for me, but now when I alt-tab I can't see my mouse. I know it's still there because I can still highlight and click on things, but it just isn't visible. This wouldn't be much of a problem, but now when I crash I have to restart my computer. I click on the 'don't send' button, but my computer just freezes. Any help will be good!! Thanks!!! I will reward you with some e-dollars!!

ok thanks all, I have figured it out. It seems the mouse was in a bad port. I switched ports and restarted comp, and it worked!!! I guess if anyone else has this problem they can use this thread as a reference.

You know, this thread has taught me something today. No more will I sit idle while my mouse goes missing.. Hoping the police and/or national guard can help me find it. No. I learned to man up and search for the mouse by myself. Yeah I may miss that beautiful cursor and I may be scared but a wise man once said that bravery isn't the absence of fear, but the presence of fear and still the will to do what needs to be done. Thank you op, thank you fellow posters. As you plug your mouse safely into the ps2 or usb port tonight, you grip that mouse with all you got and you never let go.. *farts*
