    Try setcursortype in conio.h
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
    I support http://www.ukip.org/ as the first necessary step to a free Europe.

    What cursor? Mouse, text?

    For mouse:

    Code:
    union REGS regs;
regs.ax=0x02
int86(0x33, & regs, & regs);
    No spaces in int86 - board still messing up my ampersands.

    _setcursortype(_NOCURSOR);

    It's defined in conio.h.
