I'm also interested to see the answer.

e^^^^^^^ After several tests, I found that if I let "Classic Theme" unchecked and "classic logon screen" unchecked, the xp theme will apply. Still I don't understand why I can't make it work through starting theme service, and the error was telling me that the service is not started. Is there some secret reg switches can affect theme service? I don't see any dependency of this service. Oh... We really need a rest.

Correct. If you delete them, strange things will happen.

I should say ffdshow may be a smart choice.

Opera is simply the best!

help.................

I nLited my xp cd without removing theme service, and the system is installed sucessfully and running well, but I cannot enable xp theme. I started theme service from service manager and select luna theme to apply but the error kept saying that the theme service wasn't started... Though actually I don't need this, my friends just like it and I'd like to find out why and how.
