I don't think this has been posted here before so here it goes:

To change your cursor to the ones that can be found in BF2. Do the following:

1. Open up C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\menu\External\FlashMenu\Cursor
  A. Highlight all the cursors there, and press Control + C (This will COPY)
 

2. Open up C:\WINDOWS\Cursors
  A. Click on a blank spot in the Windows Cursors folder and click Control + V (This will PASTE)

Now, go to Start - Control Panel - Mouse and go to the "Pointers" tab. Click "Browse" and find the cursors from BF2 and choose the one you want.


Now, if you want to change the cursors just do this backwards, move the bf2 cursors out of the cursor folder and copy the new ones you want, now name them the same thing as the old ones you took out. but keep the old ones DO NOT DELETE THEM because you may need them. ive never tried this but in theory it should definitly work.



Enjoy!

Ive had the BF2 cursor with the spinning 2 at the right for a few months now. I use to do it with C&C Generals and BFME, although the BFME cursor isnt that great.

Nice tip, but I already spend way too much time looking at the spinning BF2 cursor while maps load slooowwwly.


Edit: I changed my cursor to a peeling banana. Much better to look at while the map loads.   https://img76.imageshack.us/img76/1869/bananxf8.jpg
