I've integrated theme in nLite RC, but something screws up, and after installing there's old stock theme from win98'. it seems that Themes service is defaultly disabled, how can I enable it?

I've set everything as it should be in unattended section, so i dunno know what's going on... I've set Luna theme to be removed, maybe I sholudn't do this while integrating new themes?

It's in polish, so I don't think it may help you...

did you set the themes service for removal?

can you enable it and start it?

I didn't remove it. I can enable it. Actually I'm doing modification all over again, but this time I've set themes service in nLite on automatic, instead of default. Maybe it will help..

EDIT: No use, still doesn't work

can it be because of making ISO in diffrent version of nLite?

Did you also enable Uxtheme patch?

Of course, but I just realised that this win supports unsigned themes defaultly... I dunno know how is that possible, but I remember that I had problems with StyleXP application since my first nLited Xp...

Maybe I should get other Win??

Win I have currently is WinXP Pro_pl OEM version.

you should just copy uxthem.dll file by using $oem$ folder. When installtion of x complate then after first boot complate restart your pc then apply your desired themes manualy. It will apply.

How to do this?

no need to do that if you're using nlite, ignore that..

try again using a clean windows disc, slipstream sp2

and apply the patch

use this by creating folder $OEM$, $$, system32 and place it parallel to i386(win installtion folder) folder and place uxthem.dll file in it. folders should placed as i below show.

$oem$\$$\system32\uxtheme.dll

First creat $oem$ then creat $$ floder in side $oem$ folder then create system32 folder in $$ folder and then place uxtheme.dll in system32 folder.

Will it help full answer ?

As i know in nlite RC2 or beta it dos't patch uxthem.dll file correctly.

I have too same problem ...

So maybe I sholud use nLite 1.0.1 first, aply uxtheme patch and then integrate theme with RC2 ?

Why are you talking about the UXtheme patch?

It works and forget about it, recopy your clean Windows, use nlite rc1.2 don't use services page, integrate few themes and choose one.

Build ISO, test in Vmware or virtualpc.

Oh and don't remove Shell Services.
