Recently my vista throbber changed from a circle into a sandbox. I have no idea how that happened. How can I get it back?

Kind regards,
Robin

Hello voyager73,
Go to Control Panel > Mouse > Pointers, and just check that the scheme is as it should be, click on the default button just to be sure.

If this does not do it, you could try a system restore, to a point before you started having this problem.

Hope this helps, good luck and post your results.

Thank you very much Stoneys-Nutz for your early reply. Going to control panel > mouse and changing the pointer did the trick. I was thinking very complicated and thought it could be changed in my registry only. :p I don't know how the pointer changed but oh well...it's fixed now. Once again thank you very much.

Kind regards,
Robin
