I can help you more when I get home. You need either windows blinds or a hacked uxtheme.dll to get any 3rd party themes to work. If you have a hacked uxtheme.dll, try:

[Customize.org] Shell Themes > XP VisualStyles > XoddX (exotics)

or any of these:

[Customize.org] Shell Themes > XP VisualStyles

They have a lot of themes here, check them out!

I wish I still had my old host. Oh well.

MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service

Download that, its a package I made. The Readme has instructions from my old "windows XP hacks" thread, and has my current theme in it.

That's why I don't use 3rd party apps.

So where did it all go wrong? Did you replace the file? Did windows demand that you insert the CD (you didn't, right? Just cancelled, correct?). You put the windowsDark folder in your themes folder right? And you selected the theme, correct? Just so you know, you select the themes under the appearance tab under display properties, on the "Windows and buttons" drop down menu.

Remove every entry of crystal XP from the registry, remove the files, and see if it helps. Else, your screwed, may as well reinstall.
