Make sure the theme/visual style is stored in C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes

Then you will be able to access it from the Display Properties applet or you can double click the MSSTYLES file to apply it.

I've been given permission to post this by Electronic Punk....so here goes...

Been working on a nice Windows Customization website:
http://www.vista-themes.net/



The site contains free Windows Vista/XP themes, icons, screensavers and wallpapers available to give your pc the most unique look available. As with all my other sites, only the best resouces in each category are picked for inclusion.

I think you guys will enjoy this site Comments much appreciated.
