@limpek31

u mean XP OS using vista theme? yes i think...just theme rite? btw vista pack, sidebar or windows blind..they got much memory consumption ? if yes i couldnt dl lor.. sad.gif my comp's already slow
*
the memory comsumption quite a lot, and it depend on wat vista theme u apply..
if u apply vista theme from windows blind..it will consume more than normal ms style..
and windows blind need to start when windows boot..side bar also need to be start at the boot..so guess if ur computer already slow..it's quite bored to wait the windows to start..

p/s: for those using 1gb RAM, if u really want to do this.. it's ok...
but for those using 256 mbRAM...not suggested..for those using 512 RAM..
so-so~ tongue.gif tongue.gif

just uninstall everything la... my PC once using this kind of mod... just delete all the program (carefully... ) and everything backs to normal.


juz few comments, i did uninstall vista icon pack and windows blind... it's ok for windows blind..it's will revert back to ur normal ms styles...

but i counter few problem when i uninstall the vista icon pack...1st, let me tell you..
vista icon pack does backup ur original XP setting..and when uninstall it should back up all ur original setting..i notice dat it does not backup the log on screen...
til i have to copy the log on screen ".exe" from my fren computer then paste it on my lappie..then ok...

icon also have the same...few icon were missing..such as my computer original icon..
mpeg icon..n i dun figure out yet how to solve it.

for now i still use vista icon pack..coz the icon is reallllllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyy...nice!!!
hahha..juz i deselect logon screen and also bootup screen when install it...

p/s:pray for my examination tomorrow~ rclxub.gif rclxub.gif

Waa... Thanks Sifu J-Slade for all the tutorials on changing to vista look.. i'm using WB though.. version 6.0  brows.gif and the style is Vista 2.4 by Jemaho i think  unsure.gif .. i've noticed some bugs though on WB theme..

1. if you open MPC (media player classic) and you move it around on the desktop u will notice all the skin flickers
2. if you are using the Visual Tool Tips the pop-up balloons couldn't properly pop-up at the tray
3. if you doing say like transferring some files, there will be animation bar right? i noticed that if we overlapped another window on the transfer window
          the progress bar will not be accurate
4. The flower at the user's profile picture on the start menu is still visible even though i've put another picture on it..

Well that's all that i can remember right now. so are all these bugs normal? had any of you experiencing the same problem??
