    Yeah, I just installed the GoG version under Win 8.1-64, then 
immediately installed the T3 Sneaky Upgrade 
http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=138607
and the menu mouse icon shows properly, no other issues that I can see.  Be 
sure your desktop resolution is higher than whatever you set the game 
resolution to, and be aware there is no longer an 'Apply' button:  Quit the 
game to see resolution etc changes.  Damn!  I played the training mission, 
and could feel myself getting sucked into the Thief magic again, had to snap 
myself out of it.  I'll be replaying this series again soon!
