Is that a usb mouse? The KT7A boards with the via implementation of usb are
known to have this problem... just check out the abit ng's and do a quick
search on usb and you'll find lots of complaints about this. I seem to be
among the few who have managed to sort out usb on this mobo so I am very
happy with it but there are many who aren't happy.'
Good Luck,
Robin

Get later drivers. I've tired almost all versions and found that the most
compatable/best performance one are the 7.58 detonators.

Even FSAA should works fine with those.

Okay, that runs off the PS2 port thus bypassing usb... there goes my theory.
I reread your orig. post and noticed you stated the "mouse flickers"... I
thought you meant "jitters" but now see what you were getting at. Try
updated drivers for the graphics card and let us know how it goes.
Good Luck,
Robin

I have exactly the same problem as you (GeForce2 GTS) with the same drivers.
All the Det 3 drivers (I have tried) do this on my system and the only ones
that worked correctly were an older set (5.33a, pre-Det 3) from the card
manufacturer (which are way slower).  It is definitely a driver issue, so
don't worry too much about it.  Are your in-game graphics fine like mine?
