Mouse Pointer Animation does not move

Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 with 4gb memory

I have as my cursor 3D Bronze pointer.

I went inside Control Panel/Mouse, chose Pointer Tab, Work in background and
changed the icon to icon of drum beating. In the preview window, I can see
the drum beating. When I press OK and exit. When I open some application,
the drum icon would appear but without animation as though it is frozen.
Does anyone know what might be the problem on why there is no animation?

sn

is the drum supposed to beat all the time?
many icons like that animate when an action is occuring, the drum may beat
when the machine is busy, like the hourglass on a regular cursor.

I meant drum beat while application is being loaded.
