just do a search for aero and its your first result, Found it!, my mistake was typing the search phrase in as a single word as it was posted here, "Aero", or infact "Aero World" both work perfectly. Zero.

AMD vs Intel...Objectively in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

I recently found this article and thought it was worth sharing here, im sure some of the "AMD Extremests" will take it personally but in the end it really doesn't favor either processor... Enjoy, Zero. Stability Before July 30, 2002, I observed numerous E-Mails from users of AMD products. Almost all of them stemmed from "stability issues." For example, an underpowered power supply or "cheap" components. No o

About the best suggestion I can make about that is to convert the backrounds you have, it takes only a second and you can pretty much convert any BG. If you have a few fav's just open them up in your graffix prog (ie: paint shop pro, photo shop, corel, photo impact..etc..etc)and change the data type to greyscale, set it as wallpaper and enjoy!

Thanks SD, but you are too kind,(I am my own WORST critic..::laughs: it's rough and dirty, defintely amature in nature and lacks that "professional" flavor that some have a "knack" for producing..

Reply to bootskin wont let me boot in OS Customization WinCustomize Forums

bezdezzez, Bootskin doesnt work for everyone, it has been suggested in quite a few other threads to try all of the available versions offered, there are 3, sometimes one of them will work(not for me, but ah well)It has to do with various BIOS systems as well as XP service packs. Try the other versions and hopefully one will work for you, if not, then unfortunately they will not work for you. Oh yeah, create a *Restore point before inst

Save your skins in a temp folder. Uninstall the freeware version..REBOOT... install the purchased version...then move the skins in your temp folder into the new wb folder.
