Mouse pointer freezes though mouse appears to work

Hi try Msconfig
Microsoft software utility found in Microsoft Windows 98, Windows ME, and Windows XP that enables users to quickly and easily configure how their computer starts and what programs and/or services automatically load each time the computer starts. Users running any of the above versions of Windows can quickly open msconfig by following the below steps.

   1. Click Start and Run.
   2. Type msconfig and press enter and you should see the System Configuration Utility window

Click on Startup and check all the programs that are loading on startup

Then I would recommend using Hijackthis for making any changes permanent.

Let me know if this helped

I've already reduced the startup items in MSconfig down to just antivirus & firewall.

Additionally, I've added a PS/2 mouse, and the pointer does not move in response to that or the USB Mouse or tablet. The mouse pointer on-screen does not move, but it appears that the mouse is actually moving around as context menus appear in different parts of the screen and the pointer shape & animations change. Intellipoint & Intellitype installation have not improved anything.

Hi
Download and install a copy of hijackthis post the results.

I think there's already a copy of HJT on the PC, but it will have to wait until morning, it's almost midnight here. Will post results when I've done it, which could be a challenge. Will the results be valid if I run it in safe mode as Administrator, when the problem does not occur?

I suspect the registry needs cleaning
When was the last time you cleaned it ?

Try this one
http://www.ccleaner.com/

Hope this helps

Note, there are 2 HJT outputs in this post!
I' ran HJT in Safe mode as Administrator. The results follow:

Then I ran CCleaner (it's not that long since I last cleaned the registry, maybe 3 months). Rebooted, logged on as the normal user & ran HJT again. That gave me the following results.

Hi
I´ve carefully checked both of your logs and haven´t found anything out of place. Honestly thought cleaning the registry would nailed it.

Have you tried creating a new user with admin priviledges?

I didn't refresh the page before adding my logs, so didn't notice cantoris solution before I posted them. I made the change, it worked, and I put back some of the things I'd changed while chasing the problem. Then I couldn't get back onto this site to let you all know. Thamks for your help.

MS intellipoint was the likely cause of this one.
