**UPDATED (11/19/06): NOW INCLUDES 3 CURSOR SCHEMES... Medium (Normal), Large and Extra Large (XL)!!!!! Props to someone on IRC who gave them to me :) MAD Props dude!

Get the new Windows Vista Cursors from Build 5744 RC2 on your Windows XP machine. There are just a few aesthetic differences. The new cursors are antialiased and have a crisp look to them. The hourglass cursor is replaced with the loading indicator (as seen in Internet Explorer 7).

This set is really a perfect companion to the Vista styles that are out there for XP too! IF you must use any cursors with a Vista style for XP, this shall be the one!

NOTE: This is not my work obviously, I just have not seen them listed here and thought u all would like some fresh cursors for your XP and XP Vista Visualy Styles and such and as always, please ENJOY! :)

Installation Instructions:

1. Unzip the zip file to a temporary directory on ur HD.
2. Place the "Windows Aero Cursors" directory into C:\Windows\Cursors\.
3. Open up ur mouse properties (located inside Control Panel).
4. Go to Pointers tab.
5. Select (None) for a temporary scheme/theme from the list which is at the top of the list in most cases.
6. Browse for the Windows Aero Cursors directory.
7. Start picking the cursors from the Medium folder, once u have the right ones in the right spots, please proceed to step 8.
8. Save the cursor scheme/theme to the name to "Windows Aero Medium".
9. Hit Apply and then OK and enjoy!

Please repeat steps 5 through 9 for the additional schemes given within the zip, just name them to Windows Aero Large & Windows Aero XL.

I hope you enjoy these cursors just like me and my friends do with our Vista styles :)

Well Im glad you all like them, Ive recently updated them to the RC2 Vista cursors so u get 3 schemes/themes instead of just one to use :)
:iconh4m573r:
great work!
i have one problem. I don't have shadows under aero cursors :/ why?
:iconlilmegz97:
The only reason I can think of them being this way is because these cursors are from a REAL Vista RC2 build and they are anti-aliased cursors as well... thats the only possible reason I can think of for this issue.
:iconatomicrabbit22:
is it just me or is the "unavailable" cursor really crappy quality -- i.e. pixelly and ugly?
:iconctasasin:
I didn't know about the new Vista cursors until I saw it in a Cnet vid so... yeah I really like the looks of them, thanks for porting them.
:iconctasasin:
Though I'm just looking and there's no Precision select, is that the same in Vista?
