But what good are all the great themes if CursorFX crashes when you load over 400 cursors previously downloaded??? The program is great, but why can't I have access to all my cursors without it crashing? CursorXP never crashed with a multitude of cursors. I have uninstalled and reinstalled over a dozen times, cleaned the registry, contacted support, prayed to the God of cursors, and it continues to crash. I don't know if it's my issue or a CursorFX issue? It makes no sense..

ya, what he said... same here.

I've had the resources problem with CursorXP at times as well. If you don't move the cursor - everything is fine. If you move it, the CPU cycles shoot up into the 20's. Normally, no matter how much you move it, it will sit around 3-5 cycles (this is in the ctrl-alt-del process view).

I had CXP Plus installed & active at the time of the CFX Plus install. The CXP theme I was using is still active


I think the problem people are having is CXP has to be uninstalled (save your themes first) before CFX is installed. I have CFX Plus running on 3 machines (Vista Ultimate,Vista Home Prem and XP Pro)and it runs flawlessly on all three. I dl a theme no matter if it's a .curxptheme or a .cursorfx file and click on the file I get a window that says:

Theme copied into theme common folder:

C:\Users\Public\Documents\Stardock\CursorFX\Themes

Do you want to make the selected theme the current theme?

Above is quote from another post with my reply below. I hope this answers some of reply #2 & #5 problems.

ALMonty's fix quoted above seems to be the best solution so far, except you may have to search under All Users, either Application Data/Stardock or under Shared Douments/Stardock to find your cursor library. I don't understand why Stardock's software seems to put things all over the place, and not even the same places on all machines. During installations it gives you no ability to change directories or even a window showing where things are going. I love my SD programs, but these are problems, especially for us newbies. A little more pre-installation documentation would be nice, like a "MustReadMe.txt" file right on the download pages, giving any information about any special installation quirks. I didn't even know about installing programs through SDC when I first bought them.

ps: always re-boot after any of these installations just to be safe.

Doesn't help with my problem #2 above. I have uninstalled CursorXP, cleaned the registry, reinstalled FX, etc, etc. The program still crashes when a lot of cursors are installed, and it is painfully slow loading. Much worse/slower than CursorXP. Support seems aware of the issue, but there doesn't appear to be a solution yet - except to not use more than 50 cursors. Which isn't much of a solution with so many talented people creating great looking cursors.
