Try re-installing the video drivers and see if it's better.

I posted the problem originally in a Logitech Forum. A response there recommended I go to MSPAINT and see how the Mouse pointer aligned when drawing with the pencil. When I did that the line and Pencil were almost 1/4" off. Working with Dell Tech I showed them this, and, also how difficult sometimes it was to align the normal Mouse pointer up with Buttons, etc. The Fix....the Tech Downloaded and Installed the Updated Driver and ATI Software that is available at the Dell Website for my XPS that is shown for the ATI HD2600 XT Card. if you go to MY ACCOUNT at Dell.com, login, click on your XPS system then Downloads, all downloads for your XPS system appear. The tech Downloaded the driver and Software. I then went back to MSPaint and the Line and Pencil are Right on. Dell advised only to download Updates from their site because many times the Updates are different from the updates found at the Manufacturers Site. If you still have the problem, download the updates and let me know if it also corrects the problem for you.. If the two of find this corrects the Mouse Point alignment problem, we can feel fairly confident...the fix is the Updated driver and software. One issue I have noticed is the Monitor is much brighter, almost too bright....and I have the GAMMA Setting in the ATI Control Panel at it lowest setting. It is as if the Driver is over powering the Monitor when it comes to brightness.....so I'll need to play with the brightness settings. Message Edited by bigko on 01-04-2008 01:15 AM
