Hello, I have a problem seeing my mouse while I play games such as The Sims 2 or Half-Life 2. I can't figure out what to do, i've tried changing my DirectX versions from 9.0b to 9.0c, but no luck. Whenever I move my mouse I can see it, but it flashes really fast and its rather faint. When I do not move my mouse, it dissapears.
My specs are: AMD Athlon 2200+ 1.8GHz 512MB RAM GeForce 5900XT Windows XP
