Problem

Symptoms: The customer reported that he was unable to see the mouse cursor on the document screen using the 1 Page Display graphics driver (Graphics Screen Type= 1 Page, 768 X 1008 Mono and Text Screen Type= Autoselected) for his Samsung monochrome monitor. The customer was using a white background with black letters. The customer could see the mouse on the Pull-Down Menu Bar, but not on the document screen. Solutions: The customer found that using the /MONO startup option allowed him to see the mouse without difficulty. However, the /MONO option also changed the screen to a black background with white letters. The customer found that using the /MONO option in combination with a change in the SPMODE (part of the driver that controls the color of the monitor) to Reverse Video allowed him to keep the desired white background/black foreground and still see the mouse. *This information is given strictly as a troubleshooting option.
