In this current issue, I HAVE the Mac cursor in the VPC window. The Windows cursor is there too. But they are not connected or tracking each other. Just independent cursors. I feel that the VPC Additions should fix that but cannot load them. It seems to me that at sometime in the Windows XP start up, it now (never used to) loses some connection to the Mac environment in which it runs. The screen resolution balloon and the cursor behaviour are perhaps symptoms of that. When I ran the System Profiler, I noticed that VPC is NOT Listed in the (hundreds) of Applications. Is that connected with this problem? Is there something about the presence of VPC that has been lost by the MacOS ? How can I have a mssive application like VPC on my Mac without it being listed?? Is there any way to Repair the Applications list in System Profiler. NOTE: I ran Disk Utility Repair and Cocktail and System Optimizer yesterday, and restarted. No effect. regards, Trevor
