i got the comp 2 boot up into normal mode but there r still lines on it. i rightclicked, went 2 properties, settings, advanced, performance and set the bar to none. the lines are still there the lines are abit fainter. there is a thin rectangle box on the right hand side of the mouse. the rectangle is bout 3X as big as the cursor.
