Hi, when running Guild Wars, my graphics are fine, it's just my mouse flickers on and on when I move it around, and it also drags a small square around it, and when I keep the mouse still, the mouse just disappears untill I move it again.

The main problem just is that of the mouse flickering and squares being dragged around it, I'm not sure if it needs a new Graphics/Video card, because the actual graphics are fine, it's just the mouse.

I have the same problem on my PC. I think it's just my poor video card since my processor and RAM are good but my card sucks

So it is probably your video card.

I had the same problem, but the reason was my monitor.
My normal monitor stopped working so I had to use a really old one for a while and was forced to play with that glitch.

When I got a new monitor the problem was solved.

Perhaps you should try a few changes to your refreshment rate out of- and ingame, as that was where my old monitor had problems.

Right click on your desktop and go to properties, then settings, then advanced, and then click the troubleshoot tab. Make sure that hardware acceleration is at max. If that doesnt work, i cant provide any further suggestions.

Sounds to me like your hardware Cursor acceleration is disabled/faulty...

reinstall (update at the same time) the GFX Drivers, and reinstall (update) DirectX -- if this doesnt fix it.. post here, with what CPU you have and what GFX Card it is and we can help further...

I didn't say you couldn't help him or that you was trying to aim it at me..I was just notifying that my post is over a year old?
