Desktop X registration in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I recently purchased Desktop X,but when I installed it, I was not asked to input any serial numbers or anything.

I have re-installed it several times, but at no time have I been asked to enter any registration details. I have made sure that I was connected to the net when I installed it, as instructed, but still no joy. I e-mailed Stardock support, but they just sent me a "Registration FAQ",

Reply to How do I load a new shell? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

You need to go to http://www.ls2k.org You will find LOADS of information about everything to do with Litestep. There is a line in the [boot] section of your system.ini file which reads: shell= C:\Windows\Explorer.exe This needs to be changed to: shell= C:\Litestep\litestep.exe This tells your computer to use Litestep as the shell instead of Explorer.

Reply to So how fast can you go? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I'm running a 56k flex modem made in 1902 I think! The recent improvements have made a vast difference to me, thank you guys. also, spare a thought for me....whenever I download anything, the maximum transfer rate that I get is a heady 3.5kbs per second. Does anyone want to contribute to the "Get BoXXi DSL" fund? aah, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on.

Reply to Looking for a 'lost' LiteSTEP theme - Techno in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

That theme, and many more older themes are still available at Litestep.com, which appears to be up and running again. Just go to "downloads", and there are hundreds of themes. I even managed to find the classic "Rising Edges", which was the first theme I ever downloaded and spent about 2 months trying to configure,lol.
