New CursorXP

Published on October 18, 2007 By DorkCoffeez In OS Customization

Hello all,

The new CursorXP is due to launch in the near future. This is the updated version of CursorXP that will be Vista ready. What sort of new cursors are people looking for? What are your favorite types? These can be specific or broad.

Examples would be:

Rocket/Spaceships
Smooth Metal pointers
Glass pointers

or for categories

Complex animation
Steam Punk
Holiday
High Technology

Please cast votes for the new cursors! Cursors selected will be created new and then part of the launch package of the new software!

Cheers,
Seabass6.7

None of the cursorxp versions have worked properly no matter what machine I install them on. It doesn't matter if I run two graphics cards or an excellent cpu. The only thing that works properly is shutting them off and running defaults.

Does anyone think another updated version is going to run properly? Cursorxp is a flawed product.

Works perfectly for me, and the majority of others. Must be something you are doing

Anyway, back to topic... This is my most used cursor, though it doesn't appear to be available for download anymore

I am not sure which version of CursorXP you are talking about. I had CursorXP 1.31 installed on various XP-systems (laptop and desktop, XP-home and XP-professional) for years, and have never had any problems with it.

I even run CursorXP successfully on Vista64bit.

Have you informed Stardock-support about your problems with CursorXP?

What type of card have you been running it with? I've used it since prior to Stardock's purchase of CursorEx and never had any problems until I upgraded to Vista. I almost exclusively run Nvidia cards on my machine though.

One thing I have found though is that if I do any type of gaming or anything else intensively graphical I generally have to shut it off until I am finished or my cursor gets really laggy.

On topic,

For my personal taste, a good cursor should be pointy at the tip. The ones with round tips or unusual forms might be cool to look at, but navigation with them is just not as precise and just more difficult.

That doesn't mean a cursor has to be arrow shaped, it can have an unusual form, but should have a clear tip somewhere. Does that make any sense?

Makes sense to me. I also like to know where my cursor is pointing.
