comment How do I get the operating system cursor to disappear in Windowed mode whilst on Crafting menus?
I'm afraid that, despite my best efforts, I can't replicate your experience - perhaps you can update your post with specifics about your setup - it may depend on specific Windows versions or graphics card drivers...

Agreed - this is a distinct scenario, compared to the alternative question. Behaviour varies from windowed to full-screen mode. [Not sure where that downvote came from.... It's a perfectly legitimate question]

Fair point - I posted before I tested, thinking the windowed solution would be the same as the full-screenl turns out, for me at least, that the solution is simpler....

@CyberSkull - fair point (duly actioned) but that comment I just made was made nearly 2 years ago! ;)

comment Are Battlefield 3 Premium keys region restricted?
Are you talking about the base game or the Premium pack? The base game is not normally sold as key-in-a-box. It is usually sold via DVD or via Origin. However, Premium IS routinely sold as key-in-a-box. It sounds like your experience is slightly different - though I completely agree with your conclusion. BTW I found Zavvi to be the cheapest in the UK, but as long as you buy from a known reliable seller, you are unlikely to go wrong.

comment Are Battlefield 3 Premium keys region restricted?
@vartec There is absolutely no difference between buying software intended for a foreign market (i.e. grey-market) domestically and buying software in a foreign market and bringing it back 'home'. Some software providers takes steps to prevent this (either method) - in my experience, EA do not do this with the base game, and probably won't with Premium. But it's still a gamble...

comment Are Battlefield 3 Premium keys region restricted?
@bbodien you can buy a key-in-a-box in many countries, and as I said in my post, they are usually cheaper. In my case 20% cheaper. I had a quick look, but couldnt seen any cheap, grey-market (typically Russian, in my experience) versions of Premium, but I'm sure they are out there.

...since there was no definitive answer forthcoming ...since my recent experience with a grey-market purchase of the base game may be indicative. Besides, my perfectly sensible suggestion is to opt for a more legitimate discount, rather than a purchase of unknown risk.
