Cursor not moving with mouse - config/connection problem?

by jabona » Mon Sep 14, 2015 2:58 am

Hey guys,

I've been playing the game for a decent amount of time now, atleast 3 months. All of a sudden, when I launch the game now, my in-game cursor isn't connected with my touchpad/mouse, therefore making it very difficult to play the game for me. For some reason, the cursor just doesn't move, but I can search around for my "invisible" cursor to eventually land on an icon in game and find out where it is. Obviously my cursor works for everything else on my comp, only in-game does it become invisible and the in-game WoW cursor doesn't move with it.
Has anything like this happened to anyone? I am trying to get back to the game and I just can't figure it out. I have tried looking under settings and such, can't seem to find it. Maybe just re-install the game?
Any help or info would be great. thanks! :D

-on a side note, it is also doing the same thing on my 3.3.5a client as well. Can't figure it out.

Since it's happening on multiple clients, I doubt that reinstalling the game would be the answer. Try opening your task manager and making sure that any background processes aren't causing your issue.

Entering the Advanced Settings of the game, and disabling Hardware Cursor might also prove to be a solution.

Uninstall your mouse drivers, reboot, reinstall mouse drivers. Should fix the issue. I use a Steelseries gaming mouse, and had that problem once in WoW retail. I did the driver reinstall and good to go.

Yeah I use the Logitech G502, but the weird thing is, is it was working just fine before and then all of a sudden, this started happening. I'll try this too thanks for the response.
