Date for release

Does anybody know when cursor vista will be release? Month or day? Also, once cursor vista is release can we use existing cursors that was made for cursor XP?

Hi Everyone!

I have a Dell Desktop that runs XP Home, but I just got a Toshiba Laptop that runs Vista Home Premium. I would LOVE to run my CursorXP-Pro on my Laptop (as well as all of my other Stardock stuff), but I don't know how the heck to do the following:

1. I'm the ONLY human being who uses my Laptop; however it INSISTS on making me just
about jump through hoops to let it know that I'm the Administrator before I can do
ANYTHING!!!! GRRRRRR! Does anyone know how to let the Laptop know that there is no
one else who will be using this PC?? (My husband uses my Desktop....he doesn't
even want to LOOK at my Laptop because it's so fussy)! Is there any adjustment that
can be made to let Vista Home Premium know that the user (Me) is the same as the
Administrator and always will be??

2. I have dozens of cursors installed on my Desktop (XP-Home), and I'd like to know if
there's a way to transfer them to my Laptop (with Vista Home Premium as the OS).
Since many of you have success using CursorXP-Pro on Vista HP, how do I transfer my
favorite cursors?? I have PLENTY of RAM, so I'm hoping this is possible.

3. Am I allowed to use all of my Stardock purchases on my Laptop as well as on my
Desktop, or do I need to adjust my membership so that I can use everything on BOTH
PCs??

I'm sorry to ask such silly questions, but I'm still quite new at all of this stuff, plus I'm self-taught, so I don't know all of the technical stuff very well yet.

Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions that are posted to try to teach me how to do what I need to do to be able to enjoy my many Stardock acquisitions on BOTH of my PCs.

Gratefully,

I use TweakVista to lower the security enough for me to function.

Copy the Themes directory on you XP PC to the matching directory on Vista. (C:\Program Files\Stardock\CursorXP\Themes)

As long as you are only using one at a time you are good.
