Well, I am running two laptops and two LCD monitors on my system, all in
native mode and when I move the mouse to the right and down I lose all view
of the mouse cursor on each system. I do have my mouse scheme set to
Windows Black on all my systems since with it set to normal the cursor
disappears into the grey background on the grey border around a document in
WISIWYG mode when in Word.
Now if I change it to normal what happens? - - - - - Veeery interesting.
Would you believe it, the mouse is now visible on the right side and bottom
of the screen.
Change it back to Windows Black. - - - - Guess what, it's visible.
Wouldn't have believed it if I didn't see it with my own two eyes.
Live and learn. It really was gone and now it is back. Guess I'll have to
reboot the system I am currently on to see if it stays and try the other
systems now.
