Possibly the boot.ini has a choice in it. Restore the backup line.

www.osnn.net

It might have something to do with the uxtheme.dll file.

Or get this

www.osnn.net

Then do this

- Boot into safe mode

- Browse to the following folders (via Start,Run) and rename uxtheme.dll to uxtheme.bak (for backup purposes) and then copy the patched uxtheme.dll:

%SystemRoot%\system32\DllCache
%SystemRoot%\system32\
%SystemRoot%\ServicePackFiles\i386

- Reboot

Now you can use custom themes such as those supplied at ThemeXP!
