Custopack + Mac OS lion theme, rocketdock, volume gadget 1.0.0.0, HUD Time 2.0.0.0, HDD gadget...

Gonna get that !

Custopack + Mac OS lion theme, rocketdock, volume gadget 1.0.0.0, HUD Time 2.0.0.0, HDD gadget...

I have 2 user accounts --- If i install in One - I get the same theme in the other account as well ...

Any chance of changing themes in my account only ??

 

[sukesh1090]

i guess you can only change theme for different account seperately but in these custompacks your system files also will be changed which is shared by all the account.for better understanding ask vishalg.

It over writes all the system files.. So it cant be done unless u have a separate OS..

 

[Skud]

Yeah, if you are looking to apply theme change in one account only, then you are out of luck with Custopack.

+1
you have to replace various windows system files for installing 3rd party themes, hence the changes will reflect for all users of that os

New PC Build - The (Humble) Juggernaut

Hi,

High time i showed up here. got my new PC built a few weeks back (pls dont ask how many)...it was after much contemplation that i moved ahead with the idea of getting a new build, after much time of gaming on consoles and satisfying my PC & net-needs on my laptop. started on a lowly budget of ~30k, and ended on,..., well, is there an end too ?!

thanks a lot ! am humbled

the table set me back by 4k. initially had planned to get a wide wooden one built, but the carpenter threw some tantrums and i was put off. went for some 'investigation' in numerous furniture shops, and almost all of them were MDF board-tables, unable to support my tank's bulk on them. then my eyes fell on this piece. loved the looks, and the clearance between ground and glass bottom was almost perfect. i already have 2 comp/study tables at home, but neither of them could accomodate the cabby. even after seeing this one, a furniture-waala later presented to me a rather attractive proposition for a custom-built table, but then my mind was already set on this table, and the rest is history

BTW, if you've Hometown mall at pune, you might find one there...brand is 'Cabo'. i got it from one of their outlets here at thane.

cool rig man ... lov ur setup ... ....

thanks a lot !

well, am i allowed to move this as a new thread to 'overclocking, modding....' section ? posted here in haste....want to repost as a new thread with some edits
