I haven't tried this one yet:-

instead of ShowCursor(TRUE) use
	while (ShowCursor(TRUE) < 0)

instead of ShowCursor(FALSE) use
	while (ShowCursor(FALSE) >= 0)

As the software cursor works OK, maybe I should only cludge the hardware
one.
I'll hold on to this candidate patch for the moment and see if it holds up:-
