That's odd. I've never seen that version number. Anyway, I searched Google for "service pack 2 v.4354". Apparently, that version number is associated with Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Server Edition. You're right though... I too couldn't find a UXTheme patcher for that version of service pack 2.

XP x64 shares its codebase with Server 2003.

Uhhhh.... his is trying to install/modify the uxtheme.dll. It's ok to go outside children.

This is the wrong forum. Completed Visual Styles is to only be used for, appropriately, completed visual styles. He should have posted in the general Customizing Windows XP forum. Not sure what you meant by the "OK to go outside" comment.

Not the end of the world or anything, though; a mod will eventually move it.

To the OP: Just upgrade to SP3 and download a patched UXTheme.dll for that.

XP x64 is built on Server 2003, and is only at SP2 level at the moment. However, the OP probably has a beta version of SP2 installed. Uninstall the previous version and upgrade to final build of SP2. Regarding the matter at hand, I don't know of any UXTheme.dll hacks for XP x64.

That wasnt the ORIGINAL OS on any machine -- if it is the one that was installed when he bought it -- its pretty crappy.

XP64 originally was given out (for like $5.00) for anyone wanting to trade in their XP Pro license.

I rec'd a CD in the mail from MS - and it was right when XP64 was released (about the time that old ass computer was built I think) and it wasnt a beta and there were no v.### - so just get magicjellybeans - and figure out what your license is, and get another .iso --

or I should say it isnt an OEM -

Really? Huh, I thought they always updated the x86 and x64 versions at the same time. Thanks for the heads-up!

For Vista they do but XP64 and normal XP are on two different code bases. XP64 is just server 2003 with a few small modifications, so when updates come out for the server 2003 code base xp64 will also be updated.

    • Because of the EU (a good thing) newer android devices been getting 5 years worth of security patches. Except some Motorola which found the loop hole, and offer ZERO updates. In addition, Google for years have been making where it can patch some stuff by updating the core Google Play Store itself.  As echoed earlier,  you take the security risk in to your own hand beyond supported.
