This thread in the City of Hereos thread might be helpful:

MISSING POINTERS

In some instances, loading the game client on Vista will result in your
cursors/pointers not showing up. This is an easy fix.

1-Right click your desktop shortcut for the City updater.
2-Select 'Properties'. Make sure you are in the 'Shotcut' tab.
3-Select the 'Target' field. It should look something like this: "C:\Program
Files\CoH Test\CohTest\CohUpdater.exe"
4-Add -compatiblecursors 1 to the end of the target, so that it looks like
this:

"C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\CohUpdater.exe" -compatiblecursors 1

If you have installed your game to the default location, you can copy and
paste the line above into your target field.

Anyway, here is the URL:

Re: MY CURSOR DISAPPEARS

Hi Dan,

Having only just acquired Vista I was stumped by this for a week or so
myself. Cursor visible in windows, launch game : no cursor visible (but
mouse active and could operate certain menus by 'trial and error'. Fix was
to turn of the 'mouse trails' option that had been set to 'on' by default.

Hope this helps
Regards

DM
