Trouble on Tronsmart Mini PC

Dec 20, 2013 Alliat link
Was looking forward to returning to the Vendetta universe on my new mini pc (connects to TV via HDMI).

But as I attempt to enter the demo I notice that I can't click the "continue" button to start the game. I can scroll the dialog up and down so the mouse is working fine, but the click on the "continue" button doesn't register for some reason.

I tried clicking it with using my android cellphone as a virtual mouse and after that failed I tried clicking with an USB mouse and no luck.

The button to enter the Demo mode works fine. After the demo loads there's a dialog that asks me to chose controls, I can pick those fine. Then there's a dialog with a lot of control information, I can scroll that one fine but the continue button doesn't work. I can bypass that menu by right-clicking/pressing the phone's back button.

I'm not very optimistic of being able to play the game on my device since it has neither accelerometer nor touch-interface, but I was hoping to use some of my controllers. I have a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro that this forum states that doesn't work with Android, but I can navigate the home screen with it, so maybe there's some hope.

For Android, we currently only guarantee support with gamepad controllers that are fully working in Android.
But if you can't click on a button with the virtual mouse, that's strange. Any mouse either virtual or physical should be able to be used to manipulate the UI.

Thanks for your reply!

I wonder if it's one of the other installed apps that are conflicting in this way. I know that one app I have installed will deliberately disable the "install" button in the android system as a security measure as it is a server app for remotes. I'll check if that's the one causing the problems and let you know. However if that app is the culprit I will be very sad because it allows me to remotely control games with an android phone using it's accelerometer. :/
