Dave.Net Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 I don't recommend using those packs. Reshacking system files by yourself is the way to go. I don't like having a 10MB shell32. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tihiy Posted July 28, 2007 Author Share Posted July 28, 2007 VIPv3 works flawlessly for me, just return explorer.exe and taskmgr.exe from backup after installing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenomorph Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 32bit icons are nice.but when can we see some ClearType in Windows 2000?if Win2k did ClearType and 32-bit icons, i bet some people would move to it from XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dilusion Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 another thing abpout he vista icon pack 3.0 is that it really messes up the icons for the device manager and the shell crashes more often but otherwise its cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benedictus Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Hi all. First of all, I'd like to say that I'm delighted with this hack for Windows 2000. Best thing to happen in ages Anyway, I'm not posting just to say so. I should report also what I'm experiencing with WinRAR. See: This is WinRAR with FOOOD's Junior theme. As you can see, the alpha layer of the icons on the toolbar is rendered weirdly. All of these are 32 bit bmps. The way WinRAR shows the shell icons (see the "Confirm file replace" dialog) is even stranger. There is a winrar.exe.32bitimgl file on WinRAR's folder and strangely enough it seems to be working (because when browsing the hard disk the alpha layered icons show just fine in the list, as you can see in the capture). So, that's it. Issue reported Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave.Net Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 That negative-like effect happens everywhere. Not always, though. So It's kinda random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

provolino Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 btw, is it possible to have XP style taskbar in win2000? And to talk more in general, some kind of skin support?I saw something similar in Win98 Revolution pack so I hope it can be the same for Win2000 too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
