I consider this much more of a desirable feature than a problem. The cursor is always there when you need it, but doesn't block any of the screen when you don't. Furthermore, the mouse trails option (previously unavailable on the 750 video drivers) helps alot when using the tp screen in unfavorable lighting. I suspect that you can get rid of the "problem" by using the generic windows vga driver. ---------------------------------------------------------- Victor Kress Carnegie Institution of Washington, Geophysical Laboratory 5251 Broad Branch Road N.W.
