    This happens to me but when I start the game the cursor is not there. It does not just disappear when I enter inventory.

    Computer: Alienware m18xr1
    Intel core i7 @ 2.2 GHZ
    8GB ram
    AMD Radeon 6990 crossfire
    Windows 7

    Wanted to note that the mouse does appear when in window mode. Forgot to add that.

    hes right it does reappear when in windowed but disapears when back to full-screen, and since there isnt an option to adjust resolution to make a window fit the screen it is most unpleasant

    Happening to me too. Sad face. I lose the mouse anytime I click on anything in the inventory which makes the game completely unplayable. Back to Skyrim I guess until a patch. Sad face.

    My video card is an Nvidia GeForce 8400 GS.

    My computer is an HP Pavillion ap6620f. 2.5 gz processor and 4.0 GB RAM. Windows Vista 64 Bit.

    Greetings,

    Every time I attempt to equip a helmet in Candlekeep I loose my mouse icon. At that point I can't equip anything.

    Suggestions?

    Thanks,

    Crossfell

    By using the powers of Voodoo I know you are using Vista.

    The workaround is to Alt-Enter into Windowed mode. It is a bug and it will be addressed soon I'm sure.

    Aye, alt+enter to go to windowed mode was very helpful. It's not optimal, but at least it's playable now.

    I've got a further problem in windowed mode actually, the cursor displays lower than it actually is. For example to open a door I have to place the cursor an inch or so underneath that door

    I have this problem. On Vista. One can't help but wonder, did they f*cking test on Vista?

    This has been a reported problem. When I launched the game today there was an instal ready, so I updated. This mostly removed this problem. Not quite though as I did have the missing cursor curse effect me once when I picked up a set of chain mail and then went to move it in the inventory screen.

    Maybe leave the game and re-launch. Maybe then you also get the update.

    It's pretty blatantly obvious that they didn't, actually.

    I wouldn't mind them letting me help test using MY machine. You screwed me because I have Vista? Fine. Give me some beta-patches or something. I'll take a hotfix or two.

    Hint, hint, Overhaul.

    the alt-ent should work to atleast get ya the mouse back, still got to shut down and reload to get it to play right in regular mode... messed with window mode a little bit.... not a fan

    My cursor disappears when I equip things in my inventory at the friendly arm when you meet Khalid and Jaheira.
  • trinitetrinite Member Posts: 1
    Mine's disappearing when I open up the inventory in the tutorial.
  • SilverrogueSilverrogue Posts: 3
    I hope they fix this soon. I really cant play or go any further till i can see what I'm clicking on instead of guessing.

    Here is something I did that helped...click on the graghics button when you go into option, then click on fullscreen.
  • BlokeBloke Member Posts: 8
    As posted elsewhere, press alt + enter to switch to windowed mode and the cursor will reappear. If you switch back to fullscreen it will still be invisible.

    Does anybody know if it's being worked on/is possible to be fixed/is going to be fixed soon?

    This is being looked into.
