I think he means he downloaded a theme from DA and wants to apply it.

First you need to patch your uxtheme.dll (google how to do this). Once this is patched, doubleclick the .msstyles file and click ok to apply it. You might also want to copy the folder with the msstyle file to %systemroot%\Resources\Themes so that if you ever open Display Properties again and want to change your theme, it will always display in the list of possible theme choices.

Errh..not that i want to upload it to deviant..i downloaded it from there..and i dunno how to use it

Eeee..im scared. I just tried to do it. And i had to install replacers and stuff.. and it was complicated...so i used the multipatcher to do it for me..suddenly the theme change to windows classic and they said trying to replace system files with unrecognised files..please insert windows xp cd..so i system restored the comp.

that's supposed to happen... it says to click cancel when those open.


also, doing a system restore was a bad idea. you should undo it and uninstall it properly

Mannn.. now u tell me..Lol. Anyways..its completely safe?

Yes its safe, but i recomend backing up the files that it replaces, just in case.
