I then rebooted as it asked. Now when I open Object Desktop Manager, It shows no installed p

Reply to DeskScapes 8 Beta Bug Reports in Stardock Support General Stardock Forums

I downloaded and installed the Deskscapes8 Beta and it works great on my win 8 64-bit machine. I have looked and looked but can't find an option to change the Wallpaper/Dream at a selected interval. Has it been removed? Will it be in the final version? I have hundreds of wallpapers and dreams, and enjoyed having them change periodically with the earlier versions of Deskscapes.

Reply to Adobe support for Vista information in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

I use CS2 everyday and do not have much of a problem. The application window is not skinnned in the Aero theme but that is about it. I do think it is unfair of Adobe not to provide some patch or update for those that might want to get some use out of a newly purchased Photoshop CS2. That is shortsighted of them.

Reply to Object Desktop for Windows Vista Preview! in Customization Software WinCustomize Forums

This is great to see. Have have been using Object desktop for years and have enjoyed creating beautiful desktops to work on. I have been running Vista Beta for a few mounths and was wondering when I would hear of the next phase of Stardock. I have always had powerful machines that could run all of the many Stardock programs that I ran always, now Vista also runs even better. I knew that with what was "under the hood" in Vista you could do

Reply to how to make sounds when you open certain programs in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Ok, I missed the second page. So it does not work on XP or 2K. That figures.I have hacked the registry and still could not add sounds to programs. I could put them in and they would show up in windows sound schemes but stil not play. In fact the regular open and close for Sound Recorder does not work. It must not currently be posible or someone would have done it by now. there are companies that specialized in sound modification that just could not do it for 2000 and XP. Maybe with Lon

Reply to how to make sounds when you open certain programs in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I have looked all over for a program that would add sounds to Windows. I have found a few for 95-98 but none for 2000. Even the program mentioned above says for 95-98 only. I found a great program that will randomize windows sound so they do not get monotonous. http://www.ztec-software.com/ Does Sound Association really work on XP? I'd love a Second opinion
