Kelly,
Thanks for the reply. I saw that as a possibility in a previous post but unfortunately
it's not the solution. Thanks though.
It's odd, when I boot up, the second theme (well as much as XP can have as a theme) that
I set up is there, about 3 minutes in the wave plays and the theme that I set up the
first day I installed XP (default XP blue and one of my *.bmp's). If I do nothing but
restart, the second theme I set up (XP silver and another one of my *.bmp's) loads.
Three minutes later, chirp and back to the first theme! Very strange.
