I have a problem I cannot seem to get rid of or find an answer for.

When I open a document, or go to type into an address bar or change a file name in Windows Explorer - what normally would be a thin flashing cursor is now a large flashing square that covers 2 or more of the characters.

It doesnt prevent me from doing anything - it is just aggravating and I cannot seem to get the thin flashing line back.

Anyone have any solutions or input?

OK OK - I am an idiot. Accessibility options and changing the displayed cursor width fixed the prob.

My solution was to go to START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/ACCESSIBILITY and then run the Wizard. The settings for the display had changed and setting everything to its default resolved my problem.

Good luck.
