i installed win 7 yesterday and everything was fine until today, i did a clean install as i had win xp prior. installed a few programmes then installed one and it opened IE, and the cursor shot off to top left of screen, and only place it would go was centre of screen on a opened programme (blackbelt poker). so in the end i had to restart pc, so i opened blackbelt poker again(removed IE from taskbar first) and same thing happened zoooomm cursor away again.
so i unistalled blackbeltpoker and reinstalled and same thing happened.
so before i go see them to see if they have compatability issues with win 7 i thought i would ask you guys for any thoughts.
my pc is dc 2g with 500 HD also just a thought but the win7 install keeps all old windows files would it be better to remove them?

Try XP SP3 compatibility mode.
Executable right mouse click.
