Since this last patch (Before it I did not have this problem) I run 2 monitors and my mouse no longer locks to my client while I am playing. If I move to far to the left with it and click to fire the game minimizes because I clicked on the other screen .

This has not been a problem for a very long time and is quite annoying as I have to turn my second monitor off to play the game .

I have tried playing in Windowed mode, Full window , and Fullscreen none of that fixes my problem.

I have also gone into Nvidia settings and switched the game over to single display performance mode (IT was on dual display performance mode before the patch when I did not have this problem)

If anyone knows any ways around this that would be great!

I have same problem long time before this or others patchs .. my solution press B " minimap " then mouse is locked to MWO displaying monitor.
Hope it will works for you sir cause if not it make this game unplayable on one side :)

Edit : for info i play with " full window " and mu game never reduce even i click on desktop like you said but its AMD display there maybe its quite different.

I've had this issue forever, thanks for posting.

It seems that clicking on any active UI element (the Ready button for example) will register the mouse to the MWO screen, but a subsequent click on the desktop resets registration. I'll have to give the minimap trick a try.
