you give very little information there. if you are using a laptop maybe this helps:
(copied)
had the same thing on a laptop, did some googleing, here's what solved it for me:
laptops may have 2 graphics cards. the one advertised in the specs and a second, much less powerful unit. if the laptop does standard desktop applications it runs on the slim unit to conserve energy. apparently games and alike are supposed to automatically switch to the powerful unit because the slim unit does not provide all the 3d features required for the game.
in my case dayz wouldn't comply. so i had to open my dayz.cfg in the C:\Users\<your user>\Documents\DayZ folder. find the line
adapter=-1; and change to adapter=2;
"minus one" is apparently autodetect. the powerful graphics card was the 2nd entry in the windows device manager so i set the config to two.
that fixed it for me. your adapter number might vary. i had all relevant drivers updated before attempting the config file change. hope this helps.
Hello djanderson,
Sorry to hear about your trouble. It seems that if you change your Windows font size back to default, the ingame cursor should become responsive again: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/change-windows-fonts#1TC=windows-7
In order to change the ingame resolution, please try the following:
- Start DayZ and enter the Main Menu.
- Click the button labeled "Configure".
- Click the button labeled "Video".
- Click the button labeled "User Interface".
- Select a high resolution from the dropdown menu.
Since it looks like the button labels won't be legible in your game due to the current User Interface resolution, I have attached a screenshot (UI.jpg) that shows which buttons to click.
Regards,
JStewart
