tommy2hotty Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Hey guys I have xp with sp2 and couldnt get the neowin patcher to work so I manually changed my uxtheme.dll... Anyways after I rebooted I got a screen that says software/hardware changed.. Do I want to start in Safe Mode, last restore point, continue as normal... 30 second countdown... Then it takes 2 minutes for windows to start up... shutting down also take 2-3 minutes now... Any ideas? Also my paintshop pro 9 also takes 2 minutes to load...

Ranger Rick Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 I've been trying to use the patcher and it thinks I'm runing windowd nt instead of xp. I've tried to run it several times and it just keeps coming up with the same thing. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MercZire Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Why the HELL are there so many links to this Vortex-scratchpad.info thing here? It's WORTHLESS! It's a page loaded with ads and some random information on things. Why are there links to it for files, when there are no file downloads there?! Oh, and when I use the Neowin UXTheme patcher, everything goes to the old style in a few days, as if it was never there, and I have to run it to "restore my old UXTheme.dll", then run it AGAIN to get it back. At first it wasn't a huge deal, because it only happened maybe once a week or more, but now it's happening EVERYDAY! It isn't even restarting or booting it up cold that causes it, it's totally random, but it's usually a day or less before it all just screws up. Is there an alternative way to patch it other than the Neowin patcher thing?? I have this UXThemePatchXP.exe thingy, but it doesn't work at all, even after I've uninstalled the Neowin one. It just installs and nothing happens. And like I said, the goddamn Vortex-Scratchpad.info site is a bunch of worthless information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a-dogg Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 has anyone found a way to patch the uxtheme.dll for "Version 5.1 (Build 2600.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519 : Service Pack 2"? I've tried the patcher, manually...pretty much like everyone else here with this build, none of them work. Just curious if there was a way... Thanks, a-dogg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. I got the exact same version (it's german) and I can't seem to find any uxtheme.dll for it. Edit: Nevermind. I found the 5.0 version of Multipacker and it works with my version. I would post a link to it, but I can't remember where I found it... Edited July 15, 2006 by Linsen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T0t Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 I have some questions, sorry if I come off as ignorant or noobish, just really need some help. First of all, how do I check which uxtheme.dll file I need in order to patch the system file up manually? I've heard of 2 ways so far, the first being "start>run>cmd>winver" which gives me build number "Version 5.1 (build 2600.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519)". The second is a method I found at another site, which also has a tutorial. The tutorial can be seen at the following:http://themes.belchfire.net/index.php?showtopic=9001 . And the method is (Incase any of you are too lazy to go visit the site :p) "--> System Tools --> System Information. On the System Summary page (the first page shown), look at the line that reads "Hardware Abstraction Layer". Look at the last four numbers, they should match with the uxtheme.dll version you are trying to get (for example: It should say something like Version = "5.1.2600.2180. The last four number (.2180 in this example) must match the version of the pre-patched uxtheme.dll file you download". Now whenever I do method 1, I can never find the correct uxtheme.dll file. But when I do method 2 (ie. the tutorial site) I actually do find a matching uxtheme.dll file. But again, I am unsure of which to do. I'd appreciate any help on this matter, PLEASE. Also, I am also looking for a uxtheme patcher. There are many versions out, and I am confused as of which to get. Which is the best patcher out at the moment? Keep in mind I have Service Pack 2. Thank you :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
