Invisible Mouse

from Sins Forums
Hey, I'm trying to run Sins on an older laptop with an integrated graphics card, and it appears to run fine, but the mouse is invisible in-game. You can still click on things, but there's no way to see where the mouse is. I googled the problem and found a post from October where it was recommended to update directx, but that had no effect and the person who had the problem never updated it as to whether the problem was resolved. Any ideas on what I could do to fix this?

You running in fullscreen or Windowed mode ? Sometimes when I play and alt tab the mouse wont appear when i alt tab back in.

It didn't have a mouse either mode, in windowed mode I have the mouse outside the window, but once I hover over the Sins window it disappears.

I have the same problem. I tried updating the Mouse firmware but the cursor is still disappearing both Full screen and Windows mode. I have an updated directx. I will try a different mouse and maybe increase virtual memory.

Are you running any special mouse software or cursor customization programs?

I am having the same problem... The mouse pointer is not being displayed in game. The pointer is there... you can still play the game (sort of)... but the mouse pointer is invisible. I am not running any special mouse software or cursor programs.

I actually managed to solve the problem by updating my video card drivers, they weren't that out of date but it fixed the problem.
