Is it possible to know how to install thoseapplications, because i've double click on the internet explorer and explorer icons, but it's always showing me that the program have met a problem and will shut down. I know that I must not replace those link with the ones that are on the windows folder, so what must I do to make them work? There is only three files on the vista explorer folder: iexplore(1.2mo), explorer(645k) and the readme. Help please, I would really like to enjoy your program, trojan!

I dont think the blur effect would work because the blurr effect is made by the layer rendering with the new 3D technology.

Blur effect is quite possible, and actually being used in some applications for XP currently. Me and my partner are working on porting some script into DesktopX. We'll see what we can do!

It's a good concept but i don't think anyone would use this for every-day browsing. But nonetheless, a very good app. You should be proud of yourself!

I know I wouldn't use it, lol. I'm trying to make this as efficient as possible... I hope to cut down some resources... MABYE.

I would rather see a start menu program!!!  but thats just me

Oracle is coming after this, so keep your pants on!

Okay... I don't know what your problem is, brodeur007. What OS are you using? How much RAM? What video card? It sounds like your hardware or Windows don't support this app. All the files are there...

Oracle is going to be a DesktopX desktop. I'm toying with the idea of porting it to a gadget when I'm done, but it would definately eat up some memory. Oracle is just a codename for now; I hope to name it something like... Desktop Vista, or Fluffy Pink Kittens... :p

^Everybody who read my thread should get THAT one... :ninja:

the IE looks nice, doesnt maximize tho... (Y)(Y) good job so far

Erm actually an AMD Sempron 3000+ is rated at 2.0 Gigahertz not 1.8 I have the same processor if yours is running at 1.8 then its under clocked ;)

@TROJAN

I like what you have come up with - hope you develop this further - I am happy with what your doing all I want to see is some icons added to add to the functionality a bit however if your going for a 1:1 copy of Vista's explorer then skip the icons and in the top menu bar add links to the control panel and other settings just as the real vista has :) you can add copy to and move to icons into drop down menu just as the real vista has too ?

All I can say for people who think they have a pretty decent video card especially shared graphics at 64MB and expect to run the Real Windows Vista on that kind of set up and have the LDDM enabled drivers for it must be dreaming. I have a Geforce 6600GT 128 MB card and have no speed issues with these widgets. If what Frogboy says is true then its your hardware thats slowing it down not Trojans little programs.

JMO - no flaming or insults intended :)

      Bose QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 headphones are down to lowest price in over a month by Taras Buria Bose's second-gen QuietComfort Ultra headphones are premium over-ear headphones with noise cancellation, but right now, you can save 16%, thanks to a discount that brought the headphones to a new lowest price in over a month. While the general look and aesthetics remain unchanged compared to the previous gen, the Gen 2 features redesigned wear-detection sensors, which accurately pause your music the moment you take them off. Additionally, the headphones now support lossless audio via a direct USB-C wired connection, letting you enjoy uncompressed sound when plugged into your laptop or phone. There is also spatial audio support (works wirelessly) for a more immersive audio experience and improved noise cancellation, which makes the QuietComfort Ultra go-to headphones for many users on long flights or other scenarios when they need to isolate themselves from the surrounding noise. The QuietComfort Ultra (Gen 2) also features Bluetooth Multipoint for seamless switching between two devices at once. As for battery life, you get up to 30 hours on a single charge (up to 23 hours when using spatial audio). Besides good audio quality and noise cancellation, the headphones should be comfortable to wear, thanks to the lightweight 250-gram design and soft protein-leather ear pads.

    • Save 44% on Intuit QuickBooks Desktop Pro Plus 2024 (1 User for 1-Year)

      By fingletmein · Posted

      Keep in mind Intuit has lobbied like crazy to keep taxes complicated so they can continue to sell tax software. They also got caught hiding their legally mandated free version so they could release a second one that pushed countless people into charges they didn't need to pay to file. Intuit leads the charge on inventing problems so they can sell you the solution and disrespecting you in the process.
    • EA Sports UFC 6 review: Brutal, satisfying, and surprisingly accessible to newcomers

      By Figure 8 Dash · Posted

      Oddly, there was a time that UFC games were culturally relevant, largely because of the graphics and gameplay that was different than the norm. But it seems like as the sport grew in popularity, gaming outlets stopped talking about the games.
