Hi folks. I dunno if this is a bug or not, but I thought I would let you know and see if other people have the same problem.

Here is the problem. When I have bbo up and running my pointer occasionally gets nuts. It jumps from one spot to another, this can happen rather frequently during some sessions. This is not happening every time I am logged on, but about every third time. When I am disconnected from bbo, the pointer is behaving normal again.

I know bbo is build with the C++ language, and I also know what can happen with such programs. I have myself encounter lot of problems in my own C++ problems :huh: . So maybe there is a leak somewhere?

As I said, I dunno if the problem is on my computer or not. But now you know my problems at least.

System Windows XP Pro

Regards
Fredrik

Try disabling sounds, and let us know if that helps

To disable sound:

Login
Click yellow Gear icon on lower toolbar
Clear the check mark next to sounds, if it is set.

Hi Uday. I have tried with sound off a couple days. And as far as I can see this does not help that much. It could be that I have had fewer "jumpings", but it can also be a coincident. The jumpings are still there unfortunately.
Since no one else seems to have the same problem it must be something with my setup.
Oh well, I guess I will try to live with it.

Keep up the good work.

Disabling sound works for some pcs with a specific soundcard.

Have you been messing around with the BBO folders, etc? If so, try a reinstall.

Do you have a particularly small/slow/strange setup ?
