This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give
a recipe starting from `emacs -Q':

Installed GNU Emacs 23.1.97.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.0.6002) of 2010-05-04 on
G41R2F1.  Read the news, which said that setting make-pointer-visible to
non-nil will make the pointer invisible when typing.  Noted that
make-pointer-invisible is `t'.  Noted that the pointer does not become
invisible when typing.

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
For information about debugging Emacs, please read the file
c:/Program Files/emacs/etc/DEBUG.
