I'm having problems highlighting the various choices on the menu screens. There is no cursor to indicate where my mouse is currently pointing and all I can do is move the mouse randomly around the screen until I finally land on one of the choices. It sometimes takes several minutes of slowly moving the mouse around the screen before I finally locate one of the choices. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Any suggestions as to how to correct this problem would be greatly appreciated..... Rick O.

The game comes with Direct X 7.0 Maybe upgrading to 7.0a might help

You're using a GeForce right? Then, AFAIK, you need to wait for the next DTR-patch, it is said that it will fix this annoying problem. /Stefan -- ========================================================== Stefan Soderholm Email: [email hidden] Software Developer Phone(Work): +46-(0)243-886 01 Columna AB Phone(Cell): +46-(0)70- 665 75 67 "In a world without Walls and Fences, who needs Windows or Gates?" ==========================================================
>screens. There is no cursor to indicate where my mouse is currently I would recommend looking in Control Panel at your Mouse Cursor Theme set. Set it to Windows default, or the 3D animated theme. I had a customer who had this problem with Windows (not DTR) where their mouse cursor would disappear if the menu was more then 4 levels deep. Gunner
