it is tied with aero.msstyle
http://www.sevenforums.com/themes-styles/75871-how-can-i-change-hover-selection-color.html
you can either use vista style builder and follow steps in link above
or use some resource editor and edit following images with transparent PNG file
629,630, 631, 632

thanks for info
but you dumped wrong data
according to MS (and other sites)
this is solution:
---------------
The size of each desktop heap allocation is controlled by the following registry value:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\SubSystems\Windows
Windows SharedSection specifies the system and desktop heaps using the following format:
Windows SharedSection=xxxx,yyyy,zzzz
For 32-bit operating systems, increase the yyyy value to "12288", increase the zzzz value to "1024"
For 64-bit operating systems, increase the yyyy value to "20480", increase the zzzz value to "1024"

you can try with windows metrics, to reduce width of taskbar buttons
but this doesn't work in iconised mode, only in "non combine"/ aka XP taskbar mode

Very well done, this demonstration. Best critique I've seen of the Win8 experience.
best indeed, if he'd gone more into detail of metro crappyness it would've been better
the ending also shows how worse things have become of PC industry
in past you could buy PC with free dos (atleast in my country)
these days you can't, all win 8 crap is pre-installed and forced on
so basically who ever buys PC, has to pay for win 8 licence, and then if available NEW licence for another Win OS to downgrade
I just hope MS gets blown in the face this time, much more than with vista fiasco
they don't deserve to get money with this kind of "product"

seems not

I know, but there is nothing written specific to why is it "good" to upgrade
it only mentions developers that use those graphic components sdk

I don't know how many of you noticed this but here is the story...
the "normal" taskbar icon size is not 32x32 but 40x40 (if not 42x42), I measured my biggest icons, they go 40x40
then, if you add custom toolbars with quicklaunch enabled, and set icons to "large", these go also from 40x40
my question is, is there a key in registry, for both quicklaunch and taskbar, to force different size of icons, I'd prefer 32x32 for both
or sort of I don't know... maybe .vbs script that alters something to do same result
???

for a ordinary user, what does Platform Update bring ?
I see its mostly tied to graphic components
do these tweak even more of OS responsivnes or this is only for gamers ?

as coolman above said, norton ghost is the way
I used it too back then in win 98/ME days
it even supports compression of backup image (its not bad)

actually if you disable on vista and 7 UAC
their security is equal to XP's
//offtopic
UAC to me was dirty solution to security

meh isn't it a fact when MS drops support/updates for OS that it is abandonware thus free
AFAIK every win version including XP RTM (SP0) comes to this

I'd say give it a shot in a VM!
can't
, too little disk for both OS and VM of same
this will break a lot of functions (thumbnail, copy/move)
copy/paste is dependant on this thing?

how devastating for OS would be if dllhost.exe would be replaced with dud ?
(just like XP could to get rid of verclsid)
0 -
and simple removing the exe would be damaging to OS ?
(under condition PC doesn't use win updates) ?

darn
ok thanks for info

well I know you can't remove everything as mshtml must stay
but when user "removes" ie via cpanel then it removes .exe and whatever is tied with .exe
this is what I'm after for

well if you get yourself XP Pro VL iso (aka Corporation version) you don't need to worry about activation even after 2014

I wrote its untested
therefore I don't claim it would work or what it will do to a system
ccleaner is better to use

well I'd miss watching HD videos
also you could give a win 2000 a chance, its not that bad, in fact its lightweight almoust as winME but much stable
I personally loved winME more than any 9x version, but when switched to 2000 (just to try it for few months) it was indeed welcomed change

not to mention that .net shouldn't even be in any SP
