It's not in mouse options, oj...
My explanation takes you to exactly where yours does except it takes you to the exact spot quicker
Mouse properties as accessed through control panel on the left, and ease of access settings for the mouse on the right...

Looks pretty different to me (this was taken on a fresh build of windows7)
I got to the same?
I checked and checked again and the way I went got the same box on the left
The auto select bit in mouse pointers? Or is that not what lochness means?
Using your ins I got both boxes
