I really don't enjoy in transform my OS in something else, if I want to experience the real deal I prefer the original experience, samething with the "Flyakite OS X Transformation pack", I used this last application just to experiment and the only thing that do to your sytem is slow down and make all applications run slow.

Apparently I my start button is not properlly align. Actually I thought I saw this issue being address before but I forgot.

Anyone knows what's the use of the VisualToolTip? I mouseover programs on my taskbar then something like this appear:

i get the problem with the start icon too.

however everything else is a ok.

Luke.

Did anyone get this to actually do anything?

I followed the instructions exactly, set a System Restore point, booted to Safe Mode, completed the install, rebooted once done, and then... nothing!

I went into the Display Properties, no Vista themes to pick, nothing new in the Appearance tab either.

There were only 2 things I noticed: (1) A Visual ToolTip icon in the Notification Area and (2) a different icon for the C Drive. Everything else is XP style. I also tried doing a 'Repair' using the Change/Remove button in Add/Remove Programs.

Anyone else experience this?

Oh no .. how come? =X shouldn't it be safe?

No matter how much Windows X claims that his transformation packs patch over Windows' system files smoothly, there is always a problem, so when it comes to uninstalling, something goes wrong. And because we're talking about the core elements of Explorer messing up, problems often occur. Sometimes it can be something small, like a graphical glitch that you can't fix, or something major, like the whole OS breaking.

-That is right, before you install VIsta Transformation Pack 6 i'd say you save a point for system restore unless you fully understand what is going on you don't have to, so far I installed it without making a system restore point and everything seems fine.
