VISTA TRANSFORMATION PACK(XP TO VISTA)

Precautions to take : The BricoPack installation system allows you to modify your system's resources to apply a new theme. These changes are not entirely safe. So you must respect these rules :
  1. Don't install another application like a BricoPack (ShellPack, XPize ...) with the Vista Inspirat 2 BricoPack ! It could damage your operating system or could make it impossible to return to Windows XP's default appearance.
  2. Don't install a Microsoft Service Pack (SP1 or SP2) over a BricoPack. You must uninstall the BricoPack first and then install the Service Pack. After that, if you want to, you can of course reinstall the BricoPack.
  3. Don't install a BricoPack on a "light" or "gold" version of Windows XP. These are already modified. The installation of a BricoPack will make your system unstable.
  4. If you wish to unistall the BricoPack, go to "Start Menu >> BricoPack >> Vista Inspirat 2 >> Vista Inspirat 2 Config" then click on "remove". It's the only way to obtain a clean uninstallation of the pack. The "System restauration" doesn't uninstall the BricoPack perfectly.
  • Change the taskbar's and the windows' appearance : Originally, Windows XP doesn't allow you to apply a visual style, except for Luna, Royale and classic and their color schemes. Applications like Style XP (not free) allow you to do it ! But at CrystalXP.net's, we love the word "free" ! So, the BricoPack system patches Windows XP (uxtheme.dll precisely) so that you can apply visual styles without using any other applications. Two themes are included in the Vista Inspirat 2 BricoPack
  1. The "Vista Inspirat 2" theme, which consists of four sub-themes :
    • "Aero" sub-themes (with the taskpane docked on the up-side of your explorer, like on Windows Vista) are available in three colour shemes ;
    • "Classic XP" sub-theme with the taskplane docked on the left-side of your explorer, like Luna Theme of Windows XP.
  2. The "Vista Inspirat 1" theme for nostalgic people of the old Bricopack.
These two themes contain two Start Buttons (Windows Flag, or Tux) so that you can choose the one you prefer. To change your visual style, it's really simple. Right-click on your desktop, then click on "Properties", click on the appearance tab and choose your visual style. If you wish to use another visual style that those included in the pack, simply go to CrystalXP.net's gallery. Then, after downloading a new visual style, copy it into the "C:\WINDOWS\Ressources\Themes" folder.
