I believe it had to do with using "control" to find the mouse. I had changed to that earlier in the week and turned it off a bit ago and don't see the circle anymore. Thanks!

Thanks for your response. My circle is like a drawn circle - black line/white inside. If the cursor is over a gray surface (like outside a word page), it is not black but white line/gray inside. I cannot make a screen shot of it because it is a one-second occurrence - no way to catch it. I...

I use XP on a Gateway Desktop FX510 with a Dell 2408WFP monitor that I use in portrait view. In the last few days, I have a black circle about 1 inch that shows up on the screen every few minutes. It happens with any program (IE, FF, Word). It seems to be connected to the cursor/pointer...

Would someone please measure their 2408 length/height in portrait mode - from the lowest you can get the monitor to the desk/table to the top?

I had changed the VGA cord out - someone told me to try that - it cleared it up some. But just now I hit the auto button and text is fuzzy again. I tried to figure out how to undo the auto button. I reset the clock to 25. I unhooked the cables and reconnected, but maybe I need to reboot...

I just had a problem with mine having no display after the Windows logo. After a long process, it ended up being the DVI port was bad. Now I am using VGA and text looks awful.
