if you are using windows XP, then you have to see it.. look more carefully

first i want to say sorry to babis cuz of posting a thread similar to his.. i didn't mean to replace urs or anything but when i saw the stupid tutorial that they gave when u dloaded the file, i just couldnt take it and i had to post one and to piaqt.. if you use msstyles themes, you can get results like this http://blackwar1.netfirms.com/desktop2.JPG Check out www.themexp.org and ull see what i mean.. if you dont apply this patch, then you cant use the themes.. The reason for this is because microsoft wants to be the main source for everything including themes ... BLACKWAR

UXTheme is a patch from TGTsoft that allows the use of non-digitally-signed themes. You can get it from www.tgtsoft.com/downloads/uxthemepatcher.zip The instructions that are included are very hard to understand and they made it that way to encourage you to buy their lame product Styles XP.. Here i will try to explain how to patch it in a friendlier way for the newbies so they can use themes... 1.first of all u open a My computer window then click on Tools then Folder Options, then you click on the >View< tab. Then u check the circle next to show all files. After you did that, You want to uncheck the check box next to >Hide Protected Operating System Files< 2.After you have done that, you want to extract that file you got from the site i posted above using winzip/winrar. After that you want to execute the file that comes extracted out of the .zip file. Just say you agree and stuff to all those warnings. 3. Assuming your default Windows folder is c:Windows, you go to C:Windowssystem32dllcache and find the file called uxtheme.dll in there, then right click on it and select rename, then rename it to uxtheme.bak. You will get two warnings from windows file protection..>>Do not worry.. nothing will happen to your system and do not insert ur windows XP cd when it asks u to<< After you have done that lets go back to C:Windowssystem32 and find the file called uxtheme.dll and rename it to uxtheme.bak the way u did last time. In this section, lastly, find the file called >>Uxtheme.PAT<< and rename it to UXtheme.dll and then do a full reboot of your system.. Now you should be able to run themes flawlessly.. If you have any problems, feel free to post here and i can help you out.. BLACKWAR
