my laptop seems to work fine but once in a while the mouse pointer will disappear.

For instance, if I open a word file and set the view to 'Print Layout'the mouse pointer can be seen on screen around the edges and on toolbars etc apart from when I put the pointer over the actual page to try and highlight text or place the cursor to start typing - then it just completely disappears.

It will be OK once I reboot the laptop but then after a while it will intermittently disappear again, and I can only ever get it back by rebooting.

anyone any ideas on this?...
 
Either reinstall the video card/adapter drivers, or update them.
