killermonkey:
You shoulda said that last part in your original post.....

What did you install / upgrade / change between then and now? Drivers, crazy software, etc?

Kashito91:
The only thing I can remotely think of doing in the last few days was upgrading my anti-virus. I really appreciate all the help you've given me so far. :-)

Mangley:
Make sure your mouse drivers are up to date. You might want to try another mouse if you have a non-wireless PS/2 socket mouse then it's worth trying that to try and narrow it down.

That's all I can suggest.

killermonkey:
The mouse hardware would not cause loss of mouse pointer in certain applications. The drivers could, potentially, be your #1 reason though since they interact between hardware and windows. Although the mouse pointer itself is 100% driven by windows, the drivers just translate mouse data into screen position.

Anyway, I digress, I run Windows 7 (x64) and don't have any issues with mouse pointers in any game. Try upgrading your graphics drivers and mouse drivers. You might also try changing the mouse pointer set that is in use (never know) or disabling windows 7 special effects like mouse shadow or whatever.

Kashito91:
alright, just tried turn off the special effects and such. Still nothing. Also checked that everything is up to date. There are no current updates for my graphics card or my mouse as far as I could see. *sighs* this is really annoying me....
