Themes GONE???

[Guest]

Hi all, I only have two themes showing up, luna and winxp, not the silver one
or all the other's that came with WinXP. I just re-installed windows xp,
fresh install. I have no idea why they are not there. I cannot seem to
locate them. I have no option of NEW Theme in the pull down menu, only have
browse. I can't find them, How do I get them back?

Thanks

If you can't find any themes at all, head over to %WinDir%\Resources\Themes
and look for files marked Windows Classic.theme and Luna.theme. If they
aren't there, head over to http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_t.htm#Themes
and check out the proposed solution on restoring Luna and theme
functionality.

Hi,

If you are getting the Windows XP style under 'windows and buttons', look under the dropdown menu
titled 'Color scheme' and you should find the three color schemes there.
