Flykite OSX

anyone know if the Flykite OSX is good?

(Mac theme to be installed on XP)

It’s just only a theme… that makes your XP like Mac OSX. I think chanff posted it before… but can’t find the thread.

Yup it's quite good. Some of my friends got a shock when they saw my computer.

"You got a Mac on an Acer??"

The only problem I had ever encounter is that it affects Windows Movie Maker by corrupting the transitions and effects files. Can be fixed by re-installing WMM. Other than that, it works nicely Wink

i have problems with my old XP on MSN

the Mac theme(MSN) couldn't be removed

Sad Sad Sad

Reinstall MSN? Most of the time, when something don't work, just reinstall a new copy of over.

After uninstalling MSN Messenger, delete all folders related to it.

C:\Program Files\MSN Messenger
C:\Documents and Settings\Family\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger

Then reinstall MSN Messenger over again.

StarPuppy SG

did it before..that was on my old PC

ndmmxiaomayi SG

It doesn't work?

Are you sure you deleted the MSN folder from Application Data?

Most wouldn't know about it, and in fact, that's where a lot of Microsoft stuff get stuck at. You have to remove that MSN from Application Data in order for things to work properly.

Oh right, I missed that out sorry. The Mac skin for MSN doesn’t work properly so don’t include that in during installation.

The Dock is nice but a bit annoying..espically when u open browsers..they wun get overlapped by the browsers

chanff8 SG

You can choose to keep the dock hidden. It'll only appear when you shift your mouse to the bottom of screen

StarPuppy SG

the taskbar covers it

chanff8 SG

I usually shift the taskbar to the top instead. Since it's a Mac theme, might as well make it look as much like a Mac as possible? Laughing

StarPuppy SG

true..but then my icons have to move down which end up that i have to move into Dock which ends up..my dekstop very empyt

oh..btw..my loading screen is still XP..until the thw Welcome screen..anyway to change it?

chanff8 SG

Not sure why you need to move icons into dock when the icons move down, but desktop empty better, load faster Laughing

There's an option to install the Mac loading screen during installation. It'll also ask you whether your monitor is widescreen. Try re-installing? Don't have to uninstall first.
