Mouse and background popup

Do you have a wireless KB/mouse or just the remote for MC? If so try
removing them from the room to make sure they aren’t sending some stray
signals (check the batteries also).

Where is the PC’s mouse and KB?

It sounds like like mouse or KB is sending a signal, even moving the mouse a
little will cause the onscreen control to show up. Any chance (if they
aren’t wireless) that the mouse is getting moved/vibrated?

Possible stray IR from some other source? (Another remote, even sunlight is
possible).
