very unique vista error ive never seen and cannot resolve myself

The glitch has to do with my mouse pointer and doesnt happen on my [COLOR=#000080 ! important][COLOR=#000080 ! important]desktop[/color][/color] only on the web. My partial workaround is to set the [COLOR=#000080 ! important][COLOR=#000080 ! important]vista[/color][/color] aero beam icon to the beam_r icon, this helps but doesnt fix everything.

this is where it happens most on these types of pages with this various fonts and such.. whenever i pan over the left side over all the text my mouse pointer goes from normal to kinda of a garbled colorful circleish figure. It happens really quick then goes back to normal.. ie i move my pointer up and down over things and it switches back and forth from normal to garbled.. when i pan over on right white blank side all is ok. Also it happens on forums... ie if i click on a thread and attpempt to drag it(oviouslt u cant) i get the same thing. its as if the comps isnt able to make all the pointer transitions properly. sorry i horrible at articulating as english isnt my first language.

the transition looks like this for a split second then goes back to normal

Hi! Danny1189.... This is interesting, Have you tried another mouse? I thought of the mouse needing a new driver? Poor quality output-? Problem with another program or installation?

Well it could be a number of things.
I noticed you were using Firefox, does it do it in IE also? That would be the 1st thing I looked into. Second thing, is there anything you can remember changing prior to this? Video card driver, sound card, etc.?

As the guys above state... More info would be beneficial. Could you list the hardware used and driver versions if applicable.. eg If this was happening to my mouse I could try another driver or flash the firmware but not all mice let you do this... Hence the need for further information...

THanks for the replys guys, Im using a logitech G9 the same thing happens with the G7 and a microsoft mx2000. Ive tried using opera aswell as ie and i get the same issue. I have tried using both windows drivers and logitech drivers. I didnt notice this issue pre sp1.. but upon installing a fresh install now i do still get them.. perhaps it was an update along the way??

have you gone to Control Panel\Personalization\Mouse pointers and checked to make sure your set like this?

ya man, its exatactly like that. Changing the beam to beam_r provides an 80 percent fix.. not complete

its they icon righter under this + one that when changed provides a minimal fix

Sounds like a video card or video card driver problem to me. You might want to check it out.. Sorry... You haven't applied any Tweaks?
