"Cannot update cursor" often indicates either an access problem (trying to write to a file marked read-only, or trying to overwrite a file someone else has open) or permissions; realize that unlike Win9x, local users do not have all rights to all folders and files on all drives. I'd start looking there.
FWIW, I find XP and Win2K Pro to be my preferred deployment and development platforms.
