Hi, I've been using darkbasic for a while now, but, when I go into the IDE the mouse cursor doesn't appear, this has happened on 2 computers now with different OSs, chipsets, DirectX versions and Graphics Cards but I still can't see the mouse cursor, I have to hover around the menus until I see it highlight something...

If anyone could help I'd be most grateful, thanks.

Have you turned off all the visual stuff, like the different pointers and themes? Also, do you run anything like WindowBlinds or LiteStep? Any 3rd party mouse driver enhancements (like for Compaq Presarios)?

If so, I suggest turning any of that off, booting clean with no extra apps or ANYTHING running, and see if the problem is still present. Let me know what happens.
