I've been having this problem for ages, but I finally decided to look into
ways of solving it.
In almost every game I've tried (recently, Battlefield 2, Battlefield 2142,
World of Warcraft, and Black and White 2), the mouse cursor flashes rapidly.
This was always annoying, but recently it's gone beyond that. Sometimes,
after quitting a game where this behavior occurs, the cursor will be
invisible in explorer. I can see the effects when I mouseover certain areas
like the Start button, but I can't see the cursor itself. Very, very annoying.
One thing I've found is if I start up a game again when this happens, then
repeatedly alt+tab back to the desktop, I can get the mouse cursor back as
long as I'm lucky enough to hit it while the cursor is visible in the game.
Mind you, the cursor flashes REALLY quickly, so this is pretty much a crap
shoot.
Any idea what's causing it? And even more importantly, any idea how to fix it?
Thanks for any help you can provide.
