Dose anyone know how I get my curser to work in CC&G.
have tried everything I can think of but every time I try to play I can't see my curser on screen all I get is a fussy out line off to the sides and somewhere in the middle is my curser.
I have tried to Install it several times I even went as far as to call tech support and the guy could not help me fix the problem, he took my email address and said he would get back to me but I am still waiting.
Any help would be appreciated.

Curser, as in damnit #$&$&X(X(X*X)))#@_#_, or cursor as the screen thingie.

What is your system setup and what are the settings you're using for the game?

What version of Generals are you running. I suggest 1.0.2 as 1.0.3 won't let you run it from a .dmg.

Hey, where did you find the 1.0.3 update? I can only see updates up to 1.0.2 on the Aspyr page.

Thanks!

Oh yeah, I get the frozen cursor thing sometimes, and also random freezes during/after completing mission.

First off it's not a frozen cursor that's plaguing me I can't see my cursor, all I can see is two little fuzzy things and somewhere in the middle is my cursor and second aspyr dose not have a patch that go's any higher then 1.0.2 as far as I can see I have not seen anything on a 1.0.3 patch, if it dose exist and if it will fix my cursed cursor I wish someone would direct me with a link so I can play the game.
The dame thing is driving me nutty.
Any help would be appreciated

There is no 1.0.3 update. 1.0.2 is the latest according to Aspyr.

I emailed the Aspyr people and they basically said for most issues that you should delete all files and reinstall the game (bummer). I have done that several times.

The missing cursor problem seems to be cured by just rebooting the computer.

I tried that and the problem dose not go away I'm glad for you that it fixed your game but mine is still inactive and it's driving me nuts
