    Mouse Difficulty

    I'm having this exact problem. And when i get back to the Windows desktop the pointer is still missing. The strange thing is it worked fine for many days of use and then did it once to me. I rebooted and played for the rest of the day no problem. This time I played for about 5 minutes...
