I spoke too fast.

I was trying out some settings today to try and get rid of the audio popping, and it seems that creating an nVidia profile did nothing.

The way I can consistently repro the issue on my workstation by launching SDLMame with a cmd window and if it is the only window "up" on my desktop then the cursor doesn't appear. Other windows don't seem to bother it either. However, I noted a correlation when having an IE browser up. It seems that some browser windows have an affect snd some don't. I can't tell if it's flash or an animated gif (like the Graemlins when responding to a message here) or what. Probably seems pretty crazy, but I can repo it every time.

I thought that was interesting, so I tried it on my cabinet and the cursor always appears regardless of what windows are up or not.

So at this point I'm baffled. The key differences are that my workstation has a GTX650 vs GTX760 in my cabinet. The nVidia driver are both the latest WHQL drivers: 337.88. My workstation has more stuff installed on it, so I don't know if some random install is having an affect or not.


If anyone has any ideas, please feel free to pass them along.

Cheers!
