Sometimes when I am in mirror mode the mouse in one of the screens starts "painting" the screen black as I am moving it. The other screen is fine.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Lynn

Are you using UltraMon mirroring or the video card's clone mode?

It happens when I set Mirroring to start on the Ultramon menu and use the computer for several hours.
Last night I was hooked to a projector as the second monitor and I was running PowerPoint in a virtual PC and it did it almost immediately.
Just on the projector screen - the laptop lcd was fine.

Might be a resource issue, I'll try to reproduce this with Virtual PC.
Was the virtual PC session running fullscreen or in a window?

The VPC was running full screen.
Note also that sometimes it does that when I am not running VPC. It will happen then when I am not in Mirror Mode. Then I am running in dual mode with one screen being the lcd one on my laptop (its the one that the mouse starts the wierd behavior after several hours of use.)
I agree it sounds like a resource issue. Is there anything I can do?
Thanks,
Lynn

Can you still open new windows or launch applications when this happens?
If no, the system might be running out of desktop heap space. See this thread for details and a fix.
