Hello,

I'm hoping someone can help. I'm currently using a dual monitor set up for projecting powerpoint slides through a projector. However I could do with disabling the mouse pointer from appearing on the 2nd screen.
Is there an easy way to do this?

Many Thanks,

Steve Carey.

Make things as simple as possible — but no simpler. [pc3]
 
Are you set for both monitors showing the same thing, or separate views on each screen? If separate, you can drag your presentation to the second screen, move your mouse pointer to the first screen, then use up and down arrows on the keyboard to move through the screens.
 
Powerpoint normally auto-hides the mouse-cursor after a few seconds of not using the mouse while presenting. Is that option turned off?
