Hum,
there are problems with style and xp...
i prefer Windowblinds (3.1e which has more options than 4) anyway...

BTW...
i came across   UXTheme Multi Patcher v2.5.1, that allows you to use any 3rd party M$style theme on Windows XP/SP1/SP2 or WinServer 2003 by patching the uxtheme.dll (444kb).

[ v2.5 didn`t work with sp2 ]

@Vincent
your card supports DX9.0c huh...

Doom3 works here fine, i`m just in the lower delta labs right now...

@Argo

Yeah, i noticed that the sp2 install reset all my `prefetch` hacks and switched on my virtual memory (to my slower c: drive as well!) ...
before, i was managing to run sp1 system in 512 ram only...
(but i`ve still got to get round to testing sp2 in ram)


So the system just now is a bit more sluggish with more memory overhead...  :(
But funnily enough winuae runs just fine, if not faster...





@vincent
you card will run 9.0c...(er, eventually)
