1.I have Office 2003 and other software and was wondering if Vista will have any problems with old software even Windows stuff. 2. How the hell do I get the cursor to show when moving over test fields?

1. Thanks

2. When the cursor/mouse is moved over a text field like the url bar or the text field for posting on boards it disappears.

It shouldn't do, it should change into a text cursor (a little t-bar).
