Did you double-click it?

A[L]C · 7 May 2005 at 18:43

yeah it says

The visual styles could not be applied . The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.

TheTiger · 7 May 2005 at 18:46

And you ran the UXTheme Patcher?

Edit: Sorry place the file in Resources\Themes (Although it should still work)

Finally found a theme which i like and links everything together on a desktop. Finally got samurize to work and found a nice theme

ajgoodfellow · 8 May 2005 at 17:24

Here's my desktop:

Nice and plain - I've grown to like the Dock so much on Mac OS X I've installed ObjectDock to get the dock you can see on the left hand side there

The rest is the Panther theme for Style XP
