help please with patch xp

Hi to Hipster Doofus, Octopus and everyone else who took the
time to reply to my question.
I re downloaded the style as you suggested Hipster Doofus,
deleted the old stuff from the themes folder, and extracted the new files to themes double clicked on the msstyles icon, no
luck still the same, so I went mad and downloaded the new updated style xp version 1.01L which is the fix for sp1, when I
went to apply it I got the message that style xp had to loaded first, so I got my back up from cd this is an old version of style
xp (october 2001) and loaded this, went back to install the
update, got the same message to install style xp first.
Getting a bit annoyed with it all I double clicked on the tooth-
paste style that comes with old version, guess what it worked,
feeling a little pleased with myself ( dont know why ) I double
clicked on the corona 12" I had been trying to get to work, and
yes that worked as well.
I rebooted a few times just to be sure and it still works, I dont
know why this has happened I'm pleased it has, not sure it
would work again if I had to reinstall and reapply sp1.
Thanks once again for all of your help.
Octopus, I think I may try that shortcut you mention.
 
Patch XP will not work if another style program is loaded so if using the patch next time (after format) load it just after formatting & you should have no problems. Don't know what was going on but at least you got it working. :D

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
