mouse marker act funny after some play.


Recommended Posts

First of all: this is not a complain, and since there are no common howling about it, it may be due to my pc.

 

As operating system I use ME, have firewall.

 

When I logg into BB evrything is fine. When I have played for more than 1 hour, the mouse marker start to "hang" on the choise boxses, ie cards and betting boxses. Instead of one click to give a card, I must use several.

Since the delay starts gradually, you starts to do wrong because the brain says you click on another card, but the marker hang on something else:) Yesterday it stopped so I could not take any choises, so I had to leave in the middle of a lousy contract, and that I felt lousy about!!!!

 

The mouse itself work nicley outside those boxes, so it has nothing to do with cleaning or the mouse itself.

 

In order to fix the problem, I have left, restarted and come back, and evrything is back to normal for a while.

 

Are there any clever person that can tell me how to fix this problem?, I belive it can have something to do with active x, but I am not a clever man on this field:)

 

 

(I don't want to have the oponents to belive that I use this as an exuse for "bad" playing:))

I have same issue.  I've found that I get that jumpy/sticky mouse thing when I have run a number of different programs, or maybe have something like Kazaa running in the background.  The solution for me is to just reboot and log right back into BBO, and all is well.

 

I'm also running Windows ME - don't know if that's part of the problem.  I suspect it's just a memory thing, and that you need a certain amount of RAM available to run the BBO software efficiently.  Win ME, like the rest of the Windows operating systems, is notoriously poor at memory management, so this sort of behavior is no surprise to me. :)
