    He all i have a issue with my Graphics cards. I have the 5870 xfire, when I try to play WoW or Startrek online the mouse is missing all together. I think I have the most recent drivers, I have the 8.801.0.0 driver. Any thoughts?

    In wow you can try enabling the 'hardware cursor' option. I don't remember exactly where it is, but you can find it somewhere in the options.

    Yeah I have tried the hardware cursor the response time is crap with it on :( but I guess that is all I can do. Any one else had this problem?
