So all of a sudden, mouse look in my FSX has stopped working. I have done nothing to cause this that I am aware of. The only recent changes to FS were when I re-installed the FSDT airports.
What I am referring to is when you hold down the space bar and use the mouse to pan aropund and zoom the virtual cockpit. I checked to make sure the space bar was still mapped to that function and it is.
When I hold down the space key, the cursor even changes from an arrow to a cross, meaning it's working, but moving the mouse or scrolling the mouse wheel does nothing at all, but move the cursor.
I am able to pan the view using the hat switch and the numpad keys fine.
Ideas?

If it's a USB mouse, pulling it out and putting it back again, works most of the time.
Sometimes, when there is a movement of the computer while it's still ON, causes this. Unplugging and plugging resets this. Works most of the time.
If not, you might need to reinstall drivers. If still not, it's a trip to the hardware store (to buy a new one).
I am no FSX expert, so that's all from my side. Andy and a few others can be consulted for software glitches. They are the FSX veterans here and solved more problems than we have encountered in out lifetimes.
