Mouse Pointer problems, Please help!
« on: March 16, 2002, 12:11:57 pm »
???

I'm running Win98SE, and Mame32 0.58. Sometimes when I run a ROM/game, although the game starts and runs, the mouse cursor/pointer still shows up on top of the display and cannot be moved! I've downloaded a shareware program that will sometimes make the cursor disappear, and also I've noticed that if I move the pointer off to the side of the screen before launching the ROM/game, the cursor often disappears also, but other than that I have to deal with a cursor blocking a part of the display! Anyone know how to remedy this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Try pressing alt-enter twice.  This should put the game into a window, and back to full screen.  I've read this helps.  Never needed it thou', although your problem has been reported before.
