Re: ISN'T ANYONE GONNA ANSWER MY PROBLEM

Darn. When I clicked on proporties, a Dialog box appeared telling me that the
luna theme is not a valid theme, so I changed it to the windows xp media
center theme. But the taskbar is still in classic mode. It is not just the
Windows XP theme that makes the taskbar classic. I've downloaded vista themes
and they too make the taskbar classic.

You know what? I think this is enough now. I am just gonna stick with the
classic taskbar and not damage my computer.
Thank you all for you help and support.

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.

Hello again,

Now I see the problem - sort of a half XP theme.
It could be that the file 'luna.msstyles' is corrupt. So
try
this -
presuming you have an XP installation CD - if not copy
the
file from
another XP installation:

Go to C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\Luna
Locate the file *luna.msstyles*
Rename it to *luna.msstyles.old* {without the asterisks,
of
course}

Next:

Insert your Windows installation CD and stop any
autostart.
Go to Start => Run and type in (or copy/paste) the
following:

expand -r E:\i386\luna.ms_
C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\Luna\

Where E: is the drive letter for your CD-ROM (chage this
letter if
yours is different). There is space before and after -r
and a
space
before C:

Go back to C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\Luna
There should now be a file called luna.mst
Rename this file to luna.msstyles

In Display Properties, change your theme to Classic =>
Apply
=> OK
In Display Properties, change your theme to Windows XP =>
Apply => OK

Luck!

Claymore: I have never seen this problematic situation
before. I
am glad that you could help Emad with his problem. Perhaps
if
his attitude and his explanation had been more clear, help
would
have been forthcoming sooner. Nice to see that his attitude
has
changed. Perhaps WE misjudged him as well.

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.
