I wonder if anyone can help me with this --When i use the left click to shoot, sometimes this action opens a window and shuts the screen out. It seems that the cursor(pointer)is doubled. It's really annoying--especially when I'm close to a goal. Any help is appreciated - Humbly--DG - BTY--there's an armoured car called the daimler MK1 and MK2 --it did 50 mph fwd and reverse --british ww2-- I wonder if this might have been used as a model for TT?

I'm using a radeon 7000 card. To be more clear, I've noticed when I'm at the online games "skin" there are two cursors one that is sculpted (the games cursor) and the regular mouse cursor they are separated by about an inch or so. If this is the V-card's problem , where do I go to disable the NVIEW?

Mike , installed updated drivers,etc. Nothing seemed to change untill I finally enabled anti-aliasing. When I did that the "double cursors" finally melded almost together and lo and behold problem seems to be solved! This reminds me of Loran A if you can figure that one.What exactly is ant-aliasing anyway? Nview Nvidia--HUnH--- Thanks for the speedy help--for once a tech that helps--I'm impressed!!!

Well, it sounds like you fixed it yourself, but happy to respond quickly. Enabling AA fixed it. Wow, it's a strange world. AA is basically a process the gpu goes through to smooth out the image (gets rid of jaggies on lines etc). Shouldn't be required for the game (and if it affects anything I would call it a driver bug) but it's good to know about the fix...so thank you.

No - more like try all the buttons till it works kind of thing. Seems like anti-aliasing is maybe like a micro frequency buffer or tuner. Thanks for the great game bud---cheers to you and your crew!!---DG
