Well, I took the plunge and bought Turbo C++ 1.01.  Overall, I'm quite
happy, but there seems to be a problem with the mouse support.  After
swapping screens, the mouse cursor disappears.  The logical cursor is
still there, as I can sorta find the menu bar, but that's all.

_Borland Language Express_ magazine says it might be the mouse driver.
I have a Genius mouse, and my driver is v8.02, while the magazine lists
the latest Genius driver as 9.06.  They also give a number for the
Genius support BBS, but it's a disconnected number.

So... will upgrading my driver help?  And, if so, where can I find the
9.06 Genius mouse driver?

E-mail appreciated, to counteract the fast expire time on this site.
I'll summarize the replies.  Thanks in advance.
