Brando569 Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 i think i might of removed something that allows theming, when i first booted into windows after the installation it gave me the windows classic theme and the xp style wasnt listed in the drop down box. i was just like "ill re install it" and downloaded a few other themes. when i tried to install one i got this error message:"the visual style could not be applied.the service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion"i just looked and i dont have a copy of my nlite settings what could be causing this?

Camarade_Tux Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Start -> Run -> Services.msc, find "Themes", right-click, properties, set its start mode to automatic, click on start. You should be done.And next time you have a problem, attach you lastsession.ini, it is really helpful for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brando569 Posted December 17, 2006 Author Share Posted December 17, 2006 (edited) the themes service isnt there, i guess i removed it by accident i was gonna attach my last session.ini but like a dummy i deleted all of them Edited December 17, 2006 by Brando569 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speeddymon Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Brando, did you select Classic Setup or did you just leave that alone? I am having this problem as well, with 2 minor differences. My themes service is there, it just won't start. And, This problem only occurs when I use Classic Setup. If I dont enable that option, then I get my themes just fine.

Brando569 Posted December 18, 2006 Author Share Posted December 18, 2006 i just left it alone, my problem was i removed the color schemes and that in turn removed all themes except classic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
