- I also have the same problem, and was unable to correct it. It seems to
- happen when you're using a Windows graphic mode higher than 640x480x16.
- What's most interesting is that the mouse still exists, you just can't
- see it on the screen. I've been able to move windows around, minimize,
- maximize, etc... all with this invisible mouse.
-
- I sure hope the CDC fixes these "problems"...
