Look at this article, type thr Q number in the search box at technet.microsoft.com:

IntelliPoint: Pointer Disappears When You Type in Some Programs

Q256979

These behaviors can occur if you are using version 2.2 or earlier of the IntelliPoint software. Version 2.2 and earlier is not supported in Windows 2000.

1. In Control Panel, double-click the Mouse icon.
2. Click the Visibility tab.
3. Click the "Make the pointer disappear when you begin typing" check box to clear it.
4. Click OK.
