smogsy · 25 Apr 2009 at 06:56

my PC as seen in sig runs pretty well, other than one thing. if i want to change vista theme say from Aero to Basic.

it takes a good 1.30mins to change? to change back to Aero another 1.30mins it also happen when changing to 2000 skin mode?

any ideas why or is this normal?

I cant tell you why it is happening, but I can tell you that I don't think that it is normal. Mine changes fairly quickly.

Try closing down any applications before you change theme, that is the only thing I can think of.

I always run Vista in best performance (turns off all the crap aero and silly stuff) It can take awhile to change it to "best performance" as it has to change all the UI to the classic style
