Don,
You could use the Mouse applet in Control panel to make the cursor at
least tell you where it is whenever you press the CTRL key. Look for a
Pointer Options section on one of the tabs. It won't make the cursor appear
permanently, but at least you'll know if you're getting close to whatever
you want to click.
Peace,
GMan
