    Issue with mouse and triple monitor setup


    Hey,I currently have one 49" ultrawide with two 27" above and I'm having an issue with my mouse not being able to move between the monitors above.i would have to move my mouse to the bottom screen and then go up to the left or right to which ever monitor i wanting to go to.This is how i have it right nowalso how i have it IRL. I can't connect monitor 2 to monitor 1 because then i have another issue where the mouse would have to go to 3/4 to the right of monitor 3 to go to 1 but I'm able to go between 2 and 1. i want the mouse to be able to do this.i have tried 3rd party software

    :)

    Impaired mouse movement in triple monitor setup [Windows10]

    [Windows10] imgur.com This is currently my triple monitor setup and im able to move the mouse without problems between Monitor 1 and 2 - and between 2 and 3. Im unable to move my mouse between Monitor 1 and 3 for some reason. Is there some fundamental reason within windows that makes this impossible or did I make an error during setup?

    Hi Hechy,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    I'm Hahn and I'm here to help you with your concern.

    From your description and the provided image, it seems like you are experiencing an issue with mouse movement between Monitor 1 and Monitor 3 in your triple monitor setup on Windows 10. While there isn't a fundamental limitation in Windows 10 that prevents mouse movement between certain monitors, there are a few common issues that might be causing this problem:

    Resolution and Scaling Differences: If there are significant differences in the resolutions or scaling settings of the monitors, it might cause issues with mouse movement between them. Ensure that all monitors have similar resolutions and scaling settings.

    Monitor Drivers: Outdated or incompatible monitor drivers might also cause issues with mouse movement and other display-related functions. Check if there are any driver updates available for your monitors and install them.

    Third-Party Software: If you're using any third-party software for managing your multi-monitor setup, such as display management tools or custom mouse movement utilities, these could potentially be causing the issue. Try disabling or uninstalling such software to see if it resolves the problem.

    A "clean boot" starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs, so that you can determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program. How to perform a clean boot in Windows - Microsoft Support

    I hope this helps. If there is anything not clear, please do not hesitate to let me know.



    Your Sincerely

    Issue with mouse and triple monitor setup

    Triple Monitor - Mouse does not move properly

    Triple montior setup.

    -Large widescreen on bottom as Display 1.

    -Two monitors above as Displays 2-3

    When I move my mouse cursor to go the left above monitor, it does not go to the above monitor, only half of the monitor allows me to go to the top right monitor. I am able to move left to right across monitors above on Displays 2-3.

    Setup looks like this, I have already tried dragging and rearranging the Display monitor configuration.

    Display 3 Display 2

    Display 1

    I have a video on my phone, how do I upload it here?

    Thanks,

    KC
