MCT Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 u are aware u need a newer uxtheme.dll for sp2 right?
fourte3n Posted September 23, 2004 Author Posted September 23, 2004 yep... thats done! like i said, it was working.... but its been quite painful. edit: I have just dl'd another to be on the safe side! it was bigger than my current one? 112kb rather than 98kb.... hmmm
fourte3n Posted September 23, 2004 Author Posted September 23, 2004 so is there any issues I need to fix?
MCT Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 it looks ok i think..why is this there? if its custom? it has nothing 2 do with why its not working , but im curious ; Copyright © Microsoft Corp. 1995-2001did u just mod the luna theme?
fourte3n Posted September 23, 2004 Author Posted September 23, 2004 yep.... i have done some extra modding now and with the new uxtheme (i think mine was ok but you never know!) I'll go through the 2 and a half hour install.......yey
MCT Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 i think i may have found it..CustomDefaultThemeFile="%WinDir%Resources\Themes\SPACEMILK.THEME"should beCustomDefaultThemeFile="%WinDir%\Resources\Themes\SPACEMILK.THEME"
jdoe Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 And there...[boot]SCRNSAVE.EXE=%WinDir%\system32\QTandPASOOTSIE.scr
fourte3n Posted September 23, 2004 Author Posted September 23, 2004 thankyou guys.... will give it a whirl now. I have been agonising about that for a while as I see many different examples on this site some have the \ and some don't and windows made the theme with some areas having the \ and some not... it seems a bit dodgey.
MHz Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 i think i may have found it..CustomDefaultThemeFile="%WinDir%Resources\Themes\SPACEMILK.THEME"should beCustomDefaultThemeFile="%WinDir%\Resources\Themes\SPACEMILK.THEME"I agree that winnt.sif slash missing may be the fault fourte3n. The theme file itself always seem to be missing slashes, but they still apply fine. Even look into the registry and you have slashes missing for theme stuff. If you look inside Docs and settings, windows writes up a theme script file that has missing slashes. Weird but true.Ensure that you logon the first time to get your theme before reboot else you get only classic.Hope I help alittle.

Ensure that you logon the first time to get your theme before reboot else you get only classic.Sorry... i dont understand this. It's (SLOWLY) installing now.... yawn. I'll update you all if it works (dont wait thou! it takes ages.....)
MHz Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 Ensure that you logon the first time to get your theme before reboot else you get only classic.Oh, I had problems with no themes appling. Found out that because I had it rebooting right after runonceex without first logon to desktop. The following logon, I would only get classic only . Found out after several installs that you must let it logon first time to get your theme setting. Just thought I would mention. Incase you were following in my footsteps. ok?
fourte3n Posted September 23, 2004 Author Posted September 23, 2004 well that may be the problem.... I have had the skin up a couple of times but more often NOT. How do you login after setup? Do i just remove the shutdown section from the cleanup.cmd?
MHz Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 Shall be ok if you give it 60 secs or so for shutdown.
fourte3n Posted September 23, 2004 Author Posted September 23, 2004 well..... didn't apply... I have changed what people said and it doesnt restart for 60secs which is started at the start of the cleanup.cmdany more hints would be helpful.
