Frequently lose your mouse pointer on the screen? Windows XP has a neat trick whereby pressing the CONTROL key displays a circle around the mouse. This makes it easier to spot it on a complicated background.
To turn this feature on, click the "Start" menu, then "Control Panel". On the "Control Panel" window that follows, double-click the "Mouse" icon. On the "Mouse Properties" multi-tabbed dialog box that follows, select the "Pointer Options" tab. Check "Show location of pointer when I press the CTRL key" and press "OK" to close the dialog box.
