Cool XP Shell Pack *56k*

[FarFarAway]

Me too. Just installed some really cool widgits too.

Bottom left is real-time CPU usage. Bottom right is a real-time clock embedded onto the desktop. In the middle is a cool little widget that monitors what itunes is playing

Get the Konfabulator for some really useful and cool-looking widgets

*BEWARE*Windows Xp 64 bit users do not try to install this it srewed my windows up even explorer.exe wouldn't load up @ boot even after i unstalled it. i have to load it up manually.*BEWARE*

Which is why both myself and the program set a checkpoint (restore point) before the installation of the program.

Go and restore your windows from that point and you'll be back to normal

it screwed the system restore point program aswell as the whole control panel

I dunno - I never got that shit?? :eh:

 

[deepfried]

the file modifacation errors are just a throwback to windows chkdsk utility, in some form or other, its contanstanty running, dpending on your windows set up....the "errors" arnt eoros atall, its just windowes noticing a change in the file system and getting worried...its liek the way it acts like the worlds coming to end when you skip scandisk after an improper reboot

 

[FarFarAway]

Right well been fiddling some more and here's a new desktop

 

[limqareb]

[FarFarAway]
