WinXP,home, sp2, have a theme set where the active window bar is green
and inactive is red. Also the taskbar is grey. About once or twice a
day when booting up these change to dark blue.

This necessitates going into control panel/display/themes and changing
to another theme, then back again. All is then OK for awhile until it
reoccurs. Or it can be left in another theme and the same occurs.

This has been going on for about a year and I can't associate it with
any program install or upgrade. Any clues for a remedy would be
appreciated.

Finally repaired! FYI, the cause was the power supply which when
replaced, the task bar anomaly ended. Could it have been caused by
windows booting caused too much of a drain on the tired power supply?
Never heard of such, but guess anything's possible!
