Problem With Cursor/Mouse

GreenEyes83 · 10-07-2005, 08:14 AM

I hope you all can help me. This just started within the last day. I was typing an email and after a couple of sentences, the cursor disappeared, and the words I was typing stopped appearing on the screen! I had to click that spot with my mouse to get the cursor back so that I could continue typing. Does anyone know why this is happening - and what I can do to solve it?

Thank you!

I think i might be able to help you.

I heard of this prob in Outlook Express. Try this...

Look in Outlook's settings or your computer control panels mouse settings and you might be able to find the option "Hide cursor when typing"

I think that this might just be a common problem that it just common, the windows might change focus randomly. Did this work?
