fsx-se Mouse pointer "swollen" in DSR and fullscreen

[GCRR 9]

Hello,

 

since DSR came out , i´ve been using it successfully on Windows 7-64 and a 660TI, never had any issues. Unfortunately my Mobo died and i had to buy new hardware, also took the plunge and installed a fresh Windows 10. So now I´m running FSX-SE (alone) on Windows 10 with a GTX970 4GB. So far so good, to be honest everything works great and smooth, except for one thing :

 

As mentioned i use FSX-SE in DX10 (Steves Fixer with same settings i had on Windows 7) combined with appropriate NVI settings and combined with DSR factor 4 and 33% smoothing, wich works great for me, the only annoying problem is that whenever i switch to fullscreen to enable DSR and move the mouse pointer over a clickspot, it becomes huge (about 4 times its original size), as i move away from the clickspot, it recovers its normal size.(never happened in Windows 7)

 

Did anybody else experience the same ? Searching google didn´t give me any answers, btw. i tried literally everything : different AA settings, different mouse pointers, enabling and disabling pointer shadows, etc.,etc., but no luck. FSX is running as Administrator,so i´m really clueless and tired.

 

Does FSX-SE need to run in any compatibility mode in Windows 10 ?

 

I have latest Nvidia Drivers installed and Windows fully updated.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Regards

Yes, it will do that if it can cope with 4x. Do you have a microscopic thin line at the top that is the ALT Menu? I would go for 1.5x.

Thanks for your answer,

 

No, there is no microscopic line, except if you refer to the upper menu bar, obviously it´s very tiny, though quite readable with DSR factor 4, wich btw. gives me nice performance.

I´ll keep on trying, must be a Windows 10 issue as i never experienced this with Windows 7.

Perhaps try running the NVidia Control Panel and Manage 3D Settings, Global Settings, press Restore, Apply. Then set up the DSR Factors again.

Yes Steve, that was the first thing i did, also resetted the NVI profile and build a new one. I must have a "Gremlin" somewhere .
