Re: ISN'T ANYONE GONNA ANSWER MY PROBLEM

Emad: Before you make changes as suggested by Claymore, do this one thing first.

RightClick an open spot on your desktop.

Click properties/themes/Theme: Windows XP/Apply

See if this returns you to XP theme colors.

Hi,

If you don't have an installation CD, you can either search your
computer for an i386 folder, or copy the file luna.msstyles from
another XP computer. Your local computer shop may give you a copy. If
you do find an i386 folder somewhere on your computer, you would have
to modify the Run command I posted earlier to point the expand command
to the i386 folder on your computer rather than the CD drive. If
you're not sure how to do this, post back.

And Doug ...
Thanks for that.
