I got a problem, how can't I drag any files and drop to the opening program in superbar/taskbar?
Ex: I drag photo and drop to Photoshop but seems that impossible.
Anybody help, plz.

Been using this theme for well over a year and I can't believe I didn't have it in my favorites! I just installed 64 bit Vista Ultimate on my secondary partition and I love the Windows 7 feel. Thanks for making the best theme!

This theme has some serious errors on my SP2 system. Tooltips do not render properly in firefox or systemwide for that matter. My system freezes after being brought back from sleep when I use this theme. Graphically, this theme is better than the one you base it on, but internally, it needs work.

WARNING!!! DO NOT USE INSTALL THIS THEME AND giannisgx89's VERSION AT THE SAME TIME!!! THEY WILL CONFLICT AND CAUSE SERIOUS EXPLORER ISSUES! Just so you all know.

the infotip in firefox get messed up... besides that, for some reason, the visual style does not appear in the windows visual style list. however, if I applied the visual style from the .theme file, it works. perhaps you can look into it...
still, cool visual style!

I'd love to, that is the bestest OS I've ever used. Though all my drivers are for Vista 64 bit. :\
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
then download the 64 bit RC. if u need a dl link just ask. i also have a public windows live ID if u dont feel like making one.

Not that, I can do that. But my computer has a bunch of features that need drivers, and most of those drivers are available only to Vista 64-bit.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
just run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor (google it) and see if u can upgrade. it will tell u what drivers and hardware is compatible and what isnt
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I believe you misunderstand, I had already upgraded to Windows 7. Most of the features my laptop was capable of were disabled and unusable. I returned to Vista because of it. If Asus can update their drivers for Vista, I'd gladly upgrade.

In windows 7 are the minimized buttons and tray icons hover and active state blue or is this because the beta & RC wallpapers happen to be blue?
I'm pretty sure it's just a white highlight with a shadow: [link]
Can you also fix the search pane in the start menu and the start orb? [link]

Wow!! I was wondering when someone would do a mod of the 7 superbar styles that were here already!
...what exactly is different from the other 2 dozen already posted??

Whe you run Windows 7 Extra Vista on Vista x64 with SP2 you see some artefact and style wont work in basic mode I fixed this
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
If it's for Vista then it should be in the Vista section, not XP ... you might get a lot more downloads there

sir, could you fix the system tray icons on mouseover activation.. it doesn't show anything.. how could that be?..
