Freespace 2 error

ok I'm having a bit of trouble with Freespace 2 (if you didn't figure as much from the topic :P) and was hoping someone here could help.

I just did a fresh install of Freespace 2 and installation and configuring things inthe launcher goes all right, byt when I start the game it just starts to load and then minimizes and gives me this error message:

Error: Could not load animation cursor for the mouse pointer

File:C:\Projects\freespace2\code\FREESPACE2\Freesp
ace.ccp
Line:7012

Call stack:

I searched around here to see if I could find if anyone else had the same problem, and I got pretty close, no solution though :\

It's almost identical to my problem except that he seemed only to get that one error, I get the one above everytime I try to run it, and some other times I get other similar error messages, including the one in the other thread.

My specs are:

Windows XP Pro Edition
Geforce3 TI200
512 DDR ram
Intel Celeron 1.7ghz

any help would be appreciated, since without help I'm unable to play my fav game ever

Yeah I was gonna try that if I didn't get an answer here, but I wanted to see if anyone here knew how to fix it.
Oh well...hopefully someone will know :\
*goes to post at HLP*

If you're running XP, try tweaking the compatibility options for FS2.exe (Freespace2.exe is just the launcher.) I've never had any problems with XP and FS2 but I've heard it works.
