I'm on a Win2K machine, with a Radeon 7500 and a Dell
Trinitron P1110 monitor. I have the Screen Area set to
1280x1024 and the Color to True Color (32 bit). I have
Microangelo On Display running and every things set to Max
(True, 32-bit, or 16 mil depending on situation). Yet
after all of this I still get only 16 colors on my mouse
cursor. I know this is a very small thing, but it annoys
me since I make cursors and icons but can't use them.
I've also tried to run my PC without On Display but the
problem still occurs.

Thanks

This article implies you need Windows XP to support what you are tring to do

As I said when I provided the XP article. The article implies that this
is "NEW" and "PREVIOUS" operating systems(Windows 2000) did not support
more than 8 bit color for cursors.
