I've got a newish refurbished Asus i5 PC running Windows 8 and recently installed Classic Shell to get back the Windows 7 look.

So far I'm loving the Shell, with one proviso: when the PC goes to sleep and I wake it up the mouse cursor is gone. The only way to get it back is to pull out the USB cable and plug it back in.

Anyone experienced this anomaly and maybe have a fix?

I'd be grateful to know -- I do love the Classic Shell and would hate to have to uninstall it and try something else.

Thanks. :roll:

I'm fairly certain this isnt a classic shell issue, so Uninstalling it likely wont solve your problem; however you are welcome to try, and if you find that it does, we would love to know about it
That said, I have had this problem a couple times myself. Do you happen to have a touch screen? cause I started seeing the problem after I installed a touchscreen monitor on my desktop configuration. (I dont have a solution for you, because the problem has been rare in my case)

I think I solved this problem. Here's what I did:

1) Launched Control Panel and opened Power Options
2) I'm running the Balanced (recommended) power option, so I clicked Change plan settings
3) From the Change settings for the plan: Balanced screen I clicked Change advanced power settings
4) From the list of settings, I chose USB settings; there's only one option you can change: USB selective suspend setting
5) I changed the USB selective suspend setting from Enabled to Disabled

Once I tried this I put the PC to sleep, woke it up, and my cursor reappeared, fully functional.
