ATTACH POINTER TRAILS TO YOUR MOUSE
Can't keep your eye on that mouse pointer? If you want to know just where your mouse is at all times, trail it--literally--with pointer trails.
Open the Control Panel (Start, Settings, Control Panel) and double-click Mouse. Click the Motion tab, then select Show Pointer Trail. For a little trail, move the lever to Short, and for a big one, choose Long. Now click OK and try moving your mouse around a little. Can't miss it now!
