VLC: Mouse cursor doesn't automatically hide when in fullscreen.

What's happening:

  • I play any video in VLC, toggle full screen on, mouse cursor should disappear but it just stays visible no matter what. The only way to hide it is to drag it to the bottom right corner of the screen.

What I tried:

  • Went to Tools>Preferences>Video(Show All) and set "Hide cursor and fullscreen controller after x milliseconds" to "0". The controller disappears instantly when I go to fullscreen, but the cursor stays visible. Tried setting it to "1", but same result.

Other info:

  • Strangely, the cursor does disappear when leaving it in certain areas of the screen, like 2cm from the edge of the screen.

  • EVEN MORE STRANGELY, if I have taskbar running in the background with no other windows open, the mouse cursor disappears like it's supposed to, no matter which part of the screen I leave it on.

  • Some people have reported uTorrent might be causing the issue, but it happens even with uTorrent off (although, uTorrent has been acting strange lately too, starting up on its own at random times. Not sure if related).

Help?

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
