Mouse pointer

My PC works with XP Pro SP2. I am using a Microsoft keyboard (Wireless
multimedia keyboard 1.10A) and a Wireless optical 2.0 mouse from Microsoft.
Recently I reinstalled my webcam software (Logitech Quickcam fusion),
because the colours were bad when having a video conversation with my brother
in France (I live in Belgium) using Skype.
After this operation the colours were back to normal but my mouse pointer
changed: from a normal arrow pointer to an arrow with an hour-glass next to
it. Everything functions normally but i am unable to modify my pointer.
Reinstalling and updating my mouse software does not help.
Can anyone tell me how to solve this problem?

Re: Mouse pointer

Hello mark

Thank you for your respônse.
That was the first thing I did, trying to modify the pointer. In order to
see if the pointer with hour-glass would disappear. But whatever I tried or
what type of pointer I chose, nothing seemed to help. I am unable to modifie
it's aspect, it seems to be frozen. I was wondering if I could ondu it
through the register.

Re: Mouse pointer


Hello Mark,

I resolved (by accident) my problem: I double clicked another item (pointer
with question mark) and doing that I was abled (finally) to modify my
pointer. I have transformed the normal (white) pointer to a golden one.
