C&C Generals currently suffers from a double mouse pointer issue that happens when scaling modes are used or when forcing the resolution. I am using the Origin version of the game with all dgVoodoo settings kept to default except for using Stretched, keep aspect ratio scaling mode.

Try enabling option GeneralExt\EnableGDIHooking, it also hooks the cursor handling so double and flashing cursor should be gone.

I will try that and report back the results. Thanks for the help.

Thanks a lot Dege. I have just tried that option, and the game finally works fine with dgVoodoo. No more double mouse pointer. I can finally run the game in 4:3 without having to suffer with zoomed in field of view due to 16:9 or 16:10 aspect ratios. I can also enable MSAA for better image. dgVoodoo is literally the best thing that happened in the history of gaming. I have lots of old games that don't run well unless dgVoodoo is used. Thanks again Dege.
