Intellipoint 7 mouse driver has no cursor selection?

[dfsf]

I love Microsoft's Intellipoint driver except for the fact it seems to
have no cursor selection. Mine is too small. Is there any way of fixing
this without downloading 3rd party cursors? (Mouse Properties, Pointers,
Scheme....nothing there.)

I am running IP7.10.344.0 and under Pointers, Scheme, I have more than 20
selections. IIRC, the pointers are Windows items, not IntelliPoint items.
Did you have these selections before installing IP7?
To install the Windows pointers, go to Control Panel, Add or Remove
Programs, select Add/Remove Windows Components on the left side, highlight
Accessories and Utilities, click Details at the bottom, highlight
Accessories, click Details at the bottom, make sure Mouse Pointers is
checked and click OK. Don't uncheck anything else or it will be uninstalled.

I have none. I used to have several selections. Not any more.

the pointers are Windows items, not IntelliPoint items.

I guess, but Intellipoint sort of takes over the Control Panel, Mouse
thing once its installed. Everything else seems to be flawless.

Not sure as I installed IP7 as soon as I installed the OS.

That worked perfectly. Now I've got a very easy to see pointer. Guess
that file got deleted somehow. Thanks for a perfect solution.

You're welcome, glad it worked out for you! Almost had to be something
simple as that.
