    Aion (tabbing out cursor issue)


    So basically Whether Im in game or at the login screen, once Aion is running and I tab out (alt +tab or start(windows) key) immediatley after my mouse cursor drags to the top left corner of my desktop screen like a piece of metal being pulled by a magnet. I can still move the cursor, but its like a "rubberband" effect. When I move it, it immediatley pulls right back to the top left corner. I can barely move the cursor half way across the screen (and this is moving my mouse aggressively) it just pulls it right back.

    In order to get back into the game I either CTRL+TAB then use my arrow keys on the start bar to pick Aion. Or I have to CTRL + ALT + DEL to start the Task Manager and tab through the tabs to get to application tab and click enter on the Aion process.

    This is very frustrating, I have no issues in any other game that I play in regards to this issue ( Left4Dead, WC3, StarCraft, WoW) it just seems to be Aion. Sometimes, for example, I do some crafting in game. For anyone who has played, you know if you are making say 300 of something it can be a 10-15 min process of your toon standing there doing nothing but crafting, well I feel alot better being able to entertain myself on the web or something else in that process, instead of staring at the screen and not doing anything. I'd rather be able to tab out and cruise the net or w/e. This really has been my biggest Gripe with the game so far. I had the exact same issue when I had Vista 64 bit Home Premium. So its not something that just occurred since I upgraded to Win 7 64 bit home premium.

    My System:

    Alienware M17x:

    OS: Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit)

    Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q9000 @ 2.00GHz

    System Memory: 6MB DDR3 1066 MHz

    BIOS_Manufacturer: Alienware Ver. A02

    MB_Manufacturer: Alienware 5TWW4K1

    Video Cards: Dual NVIDIA GeForce GTX 280M 1MB DDR3
    (Intergrated) NVIDIA GeForce 9400M

    Hard Drives: NVIDIA STRIPE 596.18G
    Disk_Size- 640GB

    Optical Drive: HL-DT-ST DVD+-RW GA10N SCSI CdRom Device

    Mouse: Razer DeathAdder (Model: RZ01-0015, Infrared Gaming Mouse)
    Mouse Drivers up to date.



    Additional info: (not sure if it makes any difference or not)

    ISP: Comcast Cable (ultra)

    Router: Belkin N+ (set up correctly, all ports forwarded)



    What I have Tried:

    1) I reinstalled Aion a couple times, also used the NCSoft Repair software that comes with the software

    2) Uninstalled and reinstalled my razer mouse's drivers.

    3) Unplug Razer mouse, tried with just the built in touch pad
    ( Synaptics PS/2 Port TouchPad, 5-14-2009, 13.0.6.0 )

    4) Updated all availabe windows 7 updates from both Microsoft Windows Update and all windows 7 related driver and app updates directly from http://support.dell.com . Also Win 7 related updates to the Razer DeathAdder.

    5) I also ran the control panel trouble shooting program. Ran anti-virus and malware software (just incase). Etc.

    6) I also tried to research this as much as possible. I found very little information in regards to fixing the issue, but I did find alot of people had this issue like myself. The only thing I found in regards to some type of fix (either im not sure how to exactly do it, or what the comparitive program from vista 64 to win 7 64 is (if its name changed is what Im trying to get at, or isn't existent in win 7 I'm not sure) but heres the link.

    Anyways, at this point I'm stumped. I really don't know what else to try. I might of missed a few other things I looked at but I put in all the basics so that those of you who take the time to help don't have to post simple instructions. But maybe have a better understanding of what has already been tried and what has not. I might be missing something simple here. Thank you anyone who helps in Advance.

    I've been through this once, not with Aion though long time ago with an old game and I had no idea why it happened. Perhaps try to post on the Aion forum ( unless you already did), perhaps someone might have the same issue as you.

    Since no one has ever solved this, I consider this a thread resurrection, not a necro, since I have an answer.

    DISABLE WINDOWS AERO color scheme, going back to Basic. A lot of games and other all-window apps freak out at Aero w/its pretty transparency. IDK why, but going to non-Aero fixes the rubberband cursor, at least for me.

    Changing screen DPI has solved the issue for me as well.

    1. Right-click on your desktop
    2. Select "Personalize"
    3. Select "Display" on the left-hand side of the window
    4. In the display options, select "Small - 100% and click "Apply"
    5. It should prompt you to log off or restart your PC to finalize the changes
