No. I did not have XPize installed at all... What I forgot to mention is that also the icons are working. Just not the skin! Are there other users who had the same problem? Would like to know how to solve this, as I totally XPize EDIT: Can it be that XPize fails because I already have a patched uxtheme.dll?

I just installed XPize. I went through the installation process, let it install the full package (incl. uxtheme patch, bootscreen, screensavers, etc. etc.) But when I rebooted, all I got was a blank Windows (looks something like the default Windows 2000 skin, very ugly). Before I had the standard Windows XP skin. I tried using the reloader tool, but it had no effect. The screensaver and bootscreen are installed properly. They look good. But unfortunately the whole thing why I downloaded XPize, doesn't work.... for me... The XPize skins don't show up in the theme settings page, only "Modified theme" shows up and shows that ugly, ewwwww, old Windows 2000 skin. To me, it seems XPize failed to patch uxtheme.dll?
