Hi. I have only been playing for a few days and I'm totally loving getting to play this game again! However, I have a problem that is quite annoying.

I am playing in windowed-mode on Windows 10. Every now and then when I'm walking/running, I lose mouse control and the mouse arrow disappears. I then can't stop running and have to use my /sit hotkey to stop. I noticed that when this happens, the EQ window has shifted down a little so a bit of my desktop is exposed. So it seems like something is triggering the desktop behind the EQ window.

I suspect it has something to do with the fact that I hold down the left mouse button to move forward, while using the right to aim left/right. So often, both mouse keys are pressed while I'm walking/running. Mouselook is on. But, I can't seem to reproduce it consistently. Has anyone heard of this and know of a fix?

If you're going to play in windowed mode on Windows anything, it's suggested that you use WinEQ2 provided by Lavishsoft. Windows 10 doesn't always play nice with old software, so this should help a bit.

Let me know how it goes.
