Mouse pointer does not dim

My mouse pointer (arrow, and hand/finger select icon) does not dim--it stays bright white.

You have to enable Mouse Trails (pointer trails), but it must be done in the Registry in order for this to work. It's actually very easy:
- Open Regedit.exe
- Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse
- In the right-hand pane, double-click "MouseTrails"
- Change the value to 99
- Press Enter
- Log out of Windows
- Log back in
There's only one problem: with Mouse Trails enabled, the cursor is hidden in some video game menus. There's no workaround; you just have to set '99' back to '0' and log out and back in.
