Windows 7 Weird little issue with "directional arrows"?
Don't know what else to call it. It's basically the directional arrows that would be used as a command in a game, and they're are only coming up as little squares. (As shown in the picture I uploaded). Does this for every game as well, not just this one, and while it's not a major issue it is...- Darick Adams
