Mouse pointer disappeared!

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

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?

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

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