Default Why does my cursor disappear when I hit my New Line key in Word?

When I'm typing in Word, the cursor (vertical line) appears in the first
line, but when I hit my New Line key to go to the next line, the cursor
disappears, so that I'm never quite sure where it is. If I hit any of the
directional arrow keys, it reappears, but then disappears again when I hit
the New Line key.

Sounds like a possible display issue. The usual suggestions are to make sure
you have the latest driver for your monitor and, if that's not the issue,
turn down hardware acceleration a bit.
