Has anyone encountered this before? This issue is fairly new for me. When i play I have not only the game cursor but my normal desktop cursor at the same time, which often causes me to launch other apps by accident with the desktop one and then crashing my game trying to alt-tab back. I even tried in windowed mode and it did the same, just not as often. How do I get rid of my desktop cursor??? On top of the issues, it's bloody annoying.

Avoid alt-tabbing out of Skyrim.
