HOW CAN I MAKE MY DESKTOP LOOK SNAZZY.....

[Biplav]

ok as far as the hibernation is concerned, does it take more time to hibernate???
do one thing- roll back to a previous date by SYSTEM Restore!!and then see whether the features are working or not..

i cant resume from hibernation...

 

[Biplav]

have u done system restore???

 

[sahil_blues]

well ,, i installed the Longhorn transformation pack 9.0 And got these problems--
No more stand by option,,
No more proper hibernation,

i just hate transformation packs man.....they dont seem to work out....EVER!!!

 

[chanduthebest]

of course there was no big difference from the normal XP desktop and after the transformation,,
but i got the above stated new problems with the transformation

 

[Biplav]

see the difference will be noticed for the first few days,
then it would be just like windows default skin and theme.
hence take my words- go for some nice shell replacement software.here u can get loads of themes and make ur own .
get some icons , menus , clocks and u can build ur own theme.
dont go for windows blinds as it takes a considerable amount of ur memory.
talisman is the best.

i agree with you biplav that talisman really changes the look of your desktop...but again you need to use windows blinds to change the windows skin and iconpackager to install new icons as talisman doesnt do these.....

 

[Biplav]

@ sahil blues: i didnt get u.
talisman does nt automatically install icons but u definitely can do it manually!!i didnt get the windows skin thing.

 

[sahil_blues]

arrre yaar....how do we change the windows theme???.....by right clicking on desktop and going to properties then themes....we can then select the set of given themes which are "Olive Green", "Windows Style", "Silver",or default "Blue"....if you have blinds some additional themes appear in this box....but talisman doesnt do that....i hope youve got it this time!!!!....i have my fingers crossed!!!

 

[Biplav]

hey if u do shell swapping then ur theme will be automatically changed... u wont be getting the windows normal coloured taskbar !!
