Windows XP UI not working

[Aaron]

Yesterday when I started up my computer, it loaded up with
the "Windows Classic" interface. When I went to change it
back, the option for "Windows XP themes" was no longer
there. What happened, and how might I be able to change
it back to the default Windows XP Home interface? Any
help appreciated.

What happens when you open Display Properties and click the down arrow on
the Themes dialog box? Are any other themes listed there besides Windows
Classic?

Click Start, Run and enter SERVICES.MSC Locate the Themes service, and
make sure its set to Automatic and Started.
