Hi Maria, try what Padgett suggested above, it worked for me, just add a trail to it in settings. Hope it works.

Thanks I didn't want to use HDMI, bought the tab specifically because I wanted wireless screen mirroring. In the end I sent it back and bought a toshiba 8" tab which does wirelessly screen mirror. Pity though, I actually preferred the design of the acer but it didn't do what I wanted it to do which was to wirelessly screen…

Well Padgett, you nailed it - adding a shadow to the mouse made it visible on the extended screen, who'd have thought it? You did obviously but I could have chewed the conundrum over for weeks and not come up with that, thank you soooo much. 

Thanks Padgett, I've already got a laptop hooked up to the TV via hdmi, the whole point in getting the tab was to be able to project wirelessly so that I can control the TV from across the room without wires trailing. I can see what you mean though it would help to eliminate issues and thus help with the diagnostic process.

hi Padgett, I'm connecting wirelessly not with an hdmi cable. I have a Toshiba L4353D which is intel widi capable and I'm using a logitech wireless mouse. I didn't think about using mouse trails and will give it a go but don't think it will work as mouse pointer is completely invisible on extended screen so don't think…

Thanks billsey, I've done that and got a lovely big, clear mouse display (white on dark backgrounds and vice versa) on my built in screen but it disappears as soon as I move it across to the extended screen, by watching the tv screen carefully and swishing the mouse back and forth slowly I can sometimes see tab headings…

Hi Billsey, just thought I'd let you know that I managed to move things along - the problem wasn't the difference in screen resolution between the tab and the TV as I've finally got extended screen working and the picture is fine - not top quality but perfectly watchable for tv catch-up/movies etc. Just thought I'd come…

Thanks for your help Billsey, it makes perfect sense when you explained it as to why updates should be needed on a new tablet. Also thanks for taking the trouble to investigate. However having followed your guidance and the guidance of Cyberpunk on a different but related discussion I've now managed to get the HD graphics…

Thanks Cyberpunk, exactly what did you download, was it the drivers or the BIOS and there appears w to be 2 options under bothof these. Did you download all 4? Thanks.

Thanks, when I select open I get a compressed folder and the option to extract, which I do, I then get a list of other folders which I open into another list and so on. Do I have to open all of them or just some of them, this isn't straight forward and definitely notiser friendly.
