Mouse pointer disappeared!

[Espen Johannessen]

Hi!

The mouse pointer has disappeared from the screen!
Nothing happens when I move the mouse. Windows works as it should from the
keyboard. I tried two different mouses.

The computer is a Packard Bell.

Any suggestions?

Does either mouse work when you boot up in safe mode?
Event logs have any clues?
Are these USB or PS2 mice?

USB mice.
I will try safe mode etc. later this week. The computer is not situated
where I am know.

Please define what event logs you want to know about.

System logs should have some clues - but check all for errors. Also report
back if safe mode works fine w/mouse.

Thanks,
