Losing mouse on screen

Hi all, sorry if this has been asked but new to the forum, played the steam version before, but now I have the standalone and some modules, my problems started after installing FC3, when I get to the main menu my mouse pointer has to be let's say an inch or so away from the button needed to be pressed, as you can imagine this makes using the menu and highest buttons near on impossible.

The only way I have found to correct this is to control/alt/ ESC, to minimise the window then re click on it on my desktop/ tab to go back into it, then it works fine? Any ideas to correct this?

I don't know if this has anything to do with your issue or not but... in the setup menus, there's an option having to do with scaling the GUI. Is that selected by any chance?

hi, thanks a lot for the reply, its not, should it be? as said its weird that I have to alt enter out to windowed then click back on it to go full screen then its ok?

Is your monitors display settings {ratio,resolution) the same as in DCS?

no it isn't, that could be it? thought it would like auto scale to the res it set itself?

Sounds like your are using Nvidias DSR. If so you will need to click “scale GUI” in the menu. Before they added the option to scale GUI I had the same issue when trying to use a resolution more than my default resolution. Give that a try to see if that works.

thanks for your help all think its finally sorted

Great! For future reference, what was actually causing the issue?

well, I'm pretty sure it was a combination of things that happens randomly as sometimes was fine,my screen res is 1980x1080, but on dcs it set it at 1280, assuming it new best :) but setting it to my screen res so far its been fine.....only text is a bit smaller for my poor eyes lol.

now to add a bit more ram tommorow
