Mannlich Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 You installed the modded system files? Did you make sure to take them from the x64 folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mannlich Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Did you not make a backup copy of explorer.exe? If not, you could always use your vista install disc to repair the install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fix-this! Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Try taking a look here. that won't help me as i have system restore disabled. damn now i need to format. :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mannlich Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 No, you don't. Read that page, you don't need to have system restore enabled to use the repair installation. Try google, it will help you tremendously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dc'1 Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Hmm, when I try to use this theme I only get the basic style, no aero... Edit. Used TuneUp 2009 Styler to get it :) looking good :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mannlich Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Are you able to use other visual styles without encountering this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dc'1 Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Are you able to use other visual styles without encountering this problem? If you are talking to me, then yes, it was only this theme that done it. It would also select another theme when I tried to double click it lol.

There is a folder that comes in the main zip file titled "x64 system files." Those are the files you want to use when replacing the system files on your vista64 install.

Mannlich Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Correct, the other folders are for x86 installs. If you used those files the previous time, that would explain your problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gersson Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Hey, thanks! This is a very nice theme. So far the only useable one for Vista, IMO :blush: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fix-this! Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 i love the theme so far, this one and MX is my two favorites for vista so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mannlich Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Nice work. I really like the thinner taskbar. Makes the theme look much cleaner. Have you noticed that the caption buttons on Windows 7 are slightly different? They are larger than the ones on vista. Just thought I'd point out. I installed build 6956 the other day and noticed them immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dc'1 Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 The knew one is looking good! I've used this theme for a while now, changed back to th Vista theme and it looks horribly small :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted December 25, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted December 25, 2008 Looks really nice, a thin taskbar would be awesome. The size of the medium taskbar in this theme - https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=570707 - To be exact :) Also, another question. I am on 64bit Vista, can I use your explorer/shell32 replacements? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
