Sorry haven't had a chance to do any more testing, having got my new PC and then accidently deleting some data which I've been busy recovering. I did try the UXTheme.dll file in the $$ folders but it seems it doesn't work, as webmedic mentioned above. I've also used the CD eject script before starting the batch, but it has no effect whatsoever. It seems a direct copy of UXTheme.dll using COPY and RENAME commands in the batch works best for the time being (at least for me, but not for some people)
