I don't like any of MS pointers so I use the "Flatblue" pointers. My problem is everytime I start my PC the default pointers "White" come back, I have to go to mouse properties and click the pointers tab and click OK and there back. VERY disappointed!!! Anyone have this problem and did you find a fix? Also why does the "+<>" at the top of the gadgets bar not disappear with the bar outline?

Story:
Vista was really lagging when playing games/ applications so I tried to make it as fast as possible (system: E6600, 2GB DDR2-800, 8800GTS , 500GB HDD) by changing to Performance mode in System Control Panel and using Windows Classic Theme. I disabled the wallpaper and use Classic Start Menu. I also set the mouse pointer to None and Disable mouse pointer shadow. Vista was slightly better now.

When i restart the PC, Aero was not in the list anymore!!! (See image)
What happened?
Did vista realized that my system could not handle aero anymore? Serious bug in OS?
