Processor: AMD athlon 64 x2 dual core processor 6000+
Videocard: Nvidia geforce 9800 GT
OS: Windows xp home edition sp3
Mouse: Logitec g9 and logitec mx518
Problem: The mouse cursor goes invisible as soon as DosBox captures it. By pressing ctrl-f10 or autograb.
If I puif I set autolock=false it will vanish as soon as I hover over the window when long as a game is runing. Not while in comandpromt (?)
Im using the default settings.
Tried all "output" options avaliable. With same result.
Been trying dosbox 0.70-0.74 same problem with all of them.
also tried on another computor with win xp home sp3 all components diferent with the same problem

If the game doesn't has a cursor your mouse is invisible. For example the dosbox prompt has no curor, hence no mouse visible

the problem is, that when playing. For expample Jagged alliance. Since thats the game I want to play, the cursor is invisible ingame but I can still use it, just realy hard to know where on the screen it is.
