So I just bought Baldur's Gate 2 from the sale and it installs just fine but when I start the game the mouse cursor flickers and leaves ghosts for lack of a better term all over the screen wherever the mouse has been. This makes it pretty hard to play the game so I was hoping someone would have some kind of solution for me.

So far I have tried updating my drivers and setting Baldur's Gate 2 to run as administrator and I restarted my PC. I am running Windows 7 on an Asus laptop with a nVidia 550M. Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.
