media center full screen issue mouse

Hi, When I maximize the media center on my computer my mouse does not work right. IT seems the picture is way bigger than my display so i'm off about 2 inches and down to the left. THe problem with that is now I can't use the min max close buttons in the upper right hand corner because I can't go to the right of those icons. Im on a Dell 2405 with an ATI card that is supported with the right drivers. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. KEn

Hi Ken,
I have suffered with this same issue. In my case the media center "10ft interface" worked when I first installed the OS.
Symptoms were that I simply couldn't select the minimise, maximise and close buttons at all, and that mouse imputs didn't seem to be responding (even though I could use the interface with the curser keys) either.
I finally noticed that the curser seemed offset, and by that i meant that the highlighted text seemed to be activated when the mouse curser was an inch or two AWAY from the text. If I clicked directly on it, there was no response.
I had used the Control Panel -> Personalise page to change my font size to 120 DPI as on my monitor the text was a little small. Once I changed this back (required a reboot?) the media center 10ft interface worked perfectly.
Hope that helps.
