Hi there, After applying my favorite theme I get this problem Start Menu I have circled the problem. I cannot find anywhere how to fix this, its not like the start menu is really wide either. Thanks in advance, JD

When looking for a way to install the new drivers provided by creative as a download, I could not find much of an answer here that suited me. So this is what I did... Maybe someone will find this useful. 1. Download This ---This File is good for Audigy, Audigy 2 and Audigy 4. It has only been tested on an Audigy (1) card on a 32bit proc. 2. Extract all the files to a temp location. 3. Remove the following files and place them in the directories below.

Sorry if the file list is a bit hard to understand... I could not think of a better way to post it... I will archive the files if someone can host it for me (File is about 6MB compressed).

In the Extras folder of autoit in the start menu there will be a folder called extras... there you can find a decompile command allowing you to change the .exe back to .au3. Whenever I use autoit scripts I always put them in the same dir as the setup.exe and dont use a path. EX: Run ( "Setup.exe" ) that way you wont run into this problem.

I hate using programs that I dont have to...

just msstyles

I just took the cut off ones and added back the bottom in photoshop. then imported them back in...

How come the answer you can never find is always the easiest... man I feel stupid. well here is the outcome: New PIC Thanks for your help and your offer, If you can do better, please post your results Thanks again, JD

Hi there, I currently run a Vista theme in XP, and I always use the double wide start bar. Problem is that the orb gets cut off at the bottom. Normally this looks ok, but when you double up the start bar, it looks out of place. I have already downloaded reshack and changed out the .bmp to a full orb, but now I need to know where I can change the width of the icon. I am assuming that its in the msstyles, but I dont know what value to change. Anyone sucessfully done this? I have searched and found no solutions, and google was not much help either. Thanks in advance. JD PIC!

This patch is to enable component video out to a HDTV on Radeon cards. Im trying to add this into my unattended setup, so I dont have to hook up a monitor to my HTPC when reinstalling. Has anyone ever used this? ATICVPatch.exe

sorry I guess it would help if I told you that this is a unatteded cd... its a fresh install of windows etc...

OK so using this method in a batch type file, it gives me an error that says another version of Limewire is already running... tried it under GUIRunOnce as well but no change. this is my code: ECHO Installing LimeWire ECHO Please wait... start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Limewire\Limewire.exe /S ECHO Done! ECHO. thanks in advance btw Im using 4.8.0
