I was wondering if anyone out there could help me with this problem:

I have a Bondwell Mouse hooked up to  com2 on my AT.

It works fine with DrHalo (the software included with the mouse)
and MS-Windows3.0.

However using some packages the pointer dissappears. For example, using
Word 4.x it works fine in text mode bUj in graphics mode the pointer can
only be seen at what seem like random intervals for split seconds.

this is the same when i have tried to program for the mouse in Turbo Pascal in
graphics mode. the pointer is nowhere to be seen but mouse movement and 
button pressing is recognized ....

any solutions, thoughts please mail me ....
