Hi damian, back again on the Tclock3 issue... downloaded your package on the first page, but it seems to be corrupted: Tclock.exe...CRC failure By using UnRAR I could get the rest of the package, installed it, but: * explorer is showing 5% utilization on a 2GHz Celeron, is that normal ? * until now I haven´t found a solution to run it under a restricted account, only on admin it´s possible. Besides some flickery issues on the left side, I suspect it´s the full skinning of the Start-button, it´s running well. B.t.w. your package is coming along with a tclock3.dll which is smaller in size as the one delieverd in the vistapack2000 package, is there a special reason for it ? tks for your support, Thomas

Thanks damian, you are as reliable as a swiss-clock: Tclock announced for friday, et voilá Unfortunately it´ll take me to the new year to finally test it, I go skiing in the mountains for a week starting tomorrow morning. But you can be sure it will be tested soon, and INTENSIVELY tested by my little daughter... Again, many thanks for your nice SW and a Happy new Year to you ! Thomas

perfectly ok with friday, I rely on you with any further experiments I´m running I´m rather happy with the results so far, thank you so much! b.t.w: the German.ini I´ve mentioned was NO GOOD for my config: freezes the whole desktop! I was too impatient, lookin into that .ini is explaining why: it was taken out of another config, so a lot of files are located somewhere ... fortunately nothing crashed, I´ll run a full backup now, be sure! I made my lessons, waiting for your pro-advices for the config of the Tclock 3, which seems to be another hot stuff. a merry christmas to you, have received my present from you already

You´re a true damian, or magicman, whatever you like... It took me both: patching the registry PLUS using the break-button as advised, run setup second-time, off we go ! All patches applied as it should, wow! Now, if I might, is it too much expected to ask how to get the nice Vista taskbar... ... via starting Tclock... ...customizing... There was one guy in the posts posting a German.ini for tclock to get it, is that I need to do.. bloody hell, now I want to get it all, finally

Hi damian666, many thanks for this instant reply, and my apologies for mixing up with "visamizer" (that´s of course not your product... ) Seriously: I meant the setup of vistapack for Windows 2000, and as said already what happened is the following: [*]Installed it via admin-account, all worked fine. [*]by experimenting with some settings of "appearance" I´ve lost ALL icons on the desktop, start-menue, explorer ... [*]unistalled vistapack, and I believe here I did "something" wrong [*]tried what I could, user-account is back to normal but showing the standard-icons even though vistapack was getting reinstalled. [*]creating a new admin account (after hours of trying all tweaks I know) is bringing back the icons there as well, but the standard-ones only. [*]What is running customized: cursors, sounds, wallpaper of vistapack with no problem at all [*]not running customized: all icons, logon/logoff-screen If I run vistapack 2000 setup, it tells me no files to reload ! backup-folder is empty, resources-folder is containing a lot. Not sure but believe I did wrongly the unistall procedure. What I don´t understand is WHY the reloader is not reloading the vistapack-updates again into the Win-dir. Can you please teach me ? Do I have to run something manually to escape out of that trap. This is how you can spent your time if your daughter is asking you to customize her old Win2000 to a fashioned look Many thanks for your support Thomas

can you give me a short advice how I can FORCE the vistapack 2000 setup to update the relevant files. I´ve got it running once, but then lost all icons (..funny...) and it took a hell of a time to get it all back to normal... Altough having reinstalled the WINNT directory, hoping to get it all back to the original files, the setup of vistamizer is telling "zero" files to update after having checked them. Consequently I don´t see updates on the icons and the logon/logoff, but I do have all the cursors, sounds and wallpaper. I´m getting crazy since hours... Many thanks for advices from a pro. Thomas
