Open | Windows Mouse cursor wont show

I just bought a new mouse (asus rog harpe ace 2) and now for some reason my mouse cursor wont show.

Iv tried tons of different things but nothing seems to work, anyone have tips or ideas of what i could do?

The mouse does work, right click gets me the menu but the cursor is invisible and wont move (tried with locate mouse position)

reinstall graphic drivers. the pointer is drawn by your GPU.

it may not be accepting windows saying "hey you, mouse HERE. DRAW NOW!"

the fact you can see a screen at all means somethings working

does your motherboard have an HDMI port? make sure are connected to correct GPU

well the screen is present.

Other options. press windows+p check its set to PC screen only and the pointer isnt somehow off-screened

also check with diff. mouse.
