I have 2 monitors. When my computer is idle for a period of time, ~30minutes or longer, the mouse icon disappears on the second monitor. It works on the monitor with my desktop icons. I can see that it is still on in the second monitor because when I move it around I see the different boxes on the pages highlight. I have a HP Pavillion Laptop and a Dell monitor as the second monitor. I have Windows 7, but it also did this when I had Vista. Why does it do this and is there a fix? Thank you

As the display card driver controls the monitor, I think your issue is more related to the display card driver, it's better to apply the latest driver from HP, or you download the newest display card driver from ATI/Nvidia offical website. In addition, you can try to test in another mouse theme, or a new account.As you have the same issue in Vista, it's better to let us know the model of your machine, or the model of your display card. then we can help you find a better driver for your.I hope this can help you.
