[h-e-w] Problem displaying different cursor types in Emacs 22

Hello,

When I run EmacsW32 (unpatched, emacs-from-cvs-070125.zip) the cursor is always a vertical bar, 1 pixel wide, and can't be changed at all from this type no matter what I try.

For example, trying to change it to the box doesn't work:

(set-frame-parameter nil 'cursor-type 'box)

This also does nothing:

(setq cursor-type 'box)

What's more, when I test this EmacsW32 release on other Windows XP
machines, this problem goes away.

Somehow my Windows XP is configured or patched or whatever to override Emacs' cursor, or something like that.

I have no idea what this could be and cannot stand this almost invisible vertical bar cursor. Any clues?

Thanks.

Nick
