I am running the LIVE version of 6.4.

Boots fine, but I can't see my cursor on the screen.

Thanks.

I think the best way to describe this is, Invisible Cursor.

When the invisible cursor hovers over something, the button will highlight.
I just can't see the cursor.

Thanks Again.

Hi, is your intention to only use this in live mode, i.e., you have no intention to install?

I want to install, but only after I see that it works correctly.

Fair comment - which server did you download from? Heanet, AARNET, NLUUG? I would advise you go back to the base version of 6:

http://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/zorin/6/

http://ftp.nluug.nl/os/Linux/distr/zorin/6/

ftp://ftp.aarnet.edu.au/pub/zorin/6/

Keep us posted!

OK, I think that 6 'might' be a better option as it is the base version of the LTS. Never got round to trying 6.4 - Had 6.2 Ultimate installed but preferred 6 as too many lock downs on what you could do after 6, but that is my personal preference. Currently using Zorin 8 64-bit Ultimate.
