I have encountered a strange programming problem. I redifined the graphics mouse cursor in my program as follows: mov ax,9 mov bx,7 mov cx,7 mov es,SEG pattern mov dx,OFFSET pattern Those two 7's should put the "hot spot" of the graphics cursor in the center, seven pixels over and seven pixels down. Works fine on every Microsoft compatible mouse I've tried (Logitech, Genius, et al) except one: a real Microsoft mouse. Does anyone have any idea why this code works on all the compatibles but not the real thing? Thanks in advance, Eric Ruck sharyn@jhunix (bitnet)
