Hidden Cursor
The mouse cursor (arrow) "disappears" when playing a
Solitaire game I just installed. I can still get some functionality out of the mouse, but it looks like the mouse is in the "background". With a bit of effort, I can sense where it is on the screen and can click where desired -- but it is clearly very frustrating! Note that the arrow is visible (and working!) at all other times e.g. on the desktop, in other applications, etc. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game software, but still get same problem. I have also installed the game on another PC and everything works fine. Any suggestions? |

Begin by examining the mouse properties in Control Panel / Mouse for
somthing unusual, and also selecting a different pointer to test. Also examine the Preferences settings for the Solitaire game for any "mouse" settings. -- Jack E.
