     This is starting to sound like a problem I've had.  Every now and then
my OS slips into MSDOS  compatibility mode, the system slows down and the
animated cursors stop working.  Sooner or later it all comes back on by
itself.

autoexec.bat"?  Which drivers are these, and where am I supposed to put
them?
