Cursor/Pointer not working correctly
I'd recommend starting with Zloth's ++ Common Solutions & Posting Guidelines ++ thread that is stickied in this forum.
Secondly, post a log from running CoH Helper as it will give information about your system and the CoH installation and settings.
Thirdly, post a log from running HijackThis. This will show what else is going on on your computer while you are playing CoH.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Anyone got an Idea of what might be causing this problem. I have posted both the CoH Helper and HijackThis logs, however I am not as Software proficent as I am with Hardware. If you can understand what all the Info in the Logs mean, and see any conflicts that need to be fixed. I can make any changes that need to be done, just don't know where or what to look for.
Thanks.

These have been known not to work well with ATI cards, turn them off.
Also, have you tried Windowed Mode?
Speeding Through New DA Repeatables || Spreadsheet o' Enhancements || Zombie Skins: better skins for these forums || Guide to Guides
have not tried playing in windowed mode yet
Hello all,
Here is the problem, when the game is started I end up with an Invisible cursor, a Box (Black or Grey), or the wrong cursor (like the cursor appering as it would if I were dragging the Edge of some in game windowed box). If I hold the cursor over a Clickable Item/NPC/Contact it appears as it should when you hover on it prior to clicking.
I have tried the fixes in Moiread's "Updated Compilation of Vista Issues/Fixes" thread, however they have no effect. As well as the fact that I didn't see anyone else having the same problem.
Also, I need to mention. This is all happening on a Windows XP Pro SP3 OS install , not Vista OS install.
Any help, either a Fix or being Pointed in the correct direction for better Info would be very welcome.
Thanks and Reguards,
Derbieshyre
