Go into the Windows Folder on your PC, then into system 32 and then look for the file dwmapi.dll. Remove this file from the system folder e.g cut and paste it to your desk top or into my documents. Restart your PC and problem gone! Think its something to do with this file been a Vista file but may have got into XP through a download somewhere and thence seems to cause error. if it doesnt work for you just return the file to its original location.

Found this method when searching Google, but this was posted in a similar post, but almost the same topic as yours.
