I'm using the native windows mouse cursor in my OpenGL GUI system. Unfortunately, the cursor will periodically flicker. It's not too bad, but it's just a bit annoying. Does anyone know why this happens, and if it can be fixed?

I don't know why.. but the way I always have done is to use my own "cursor".
Just a bitmap rendered at the mouse-position. Works like a charm, and you can do neat stuff with the cursor.

Good luck!

The old nvidia drivers used to do that to me. Try upgrading.
