    hey i just installed service pack 3 on my laptop running windows xp. it reset a theme i had installed so now its back to the lame blue task bar. i had the file that i would run to get the theme installed in a folder in case i ad to re-install it for some reason so i try to re-install it and it fails every time. this is the message that pops up: the theme could not load because one of the needed theme files could not be found....

    you need to re patch your system files that allow you to use custom themes
