How to Make Your XP ''Vista Like''


Hello everyone,

Many of us like how Windows Vista looks like, but we have to point out a fact that is accepted throughout the whole tech-savvy community: XP will take the most out of any 32 bit system whatever it might be.

First Step


Download the software on this link.

link

The first is a .zip file, just extract it. Put all of the files in the same folder, put the folder in ''Program Files, create a shortcut on the desktop and link the shortcut to the ''WinFlip.exe'' file. You can put a keyboard shortcut to the desktop icon too: image

WinFlip.exe imitates the Aero feature of Vista as you can see. Cool, heh ?

Second Step


Download the file on this link :

link

Extract the files and you will get a folder. In this folder, you get 4 more folders.

- Bottom Common Tasks
- Fonts
- Styler Toolbar (You will need to have Styler for this. Just download it from link and install it.
- Theme

Copy all contents in "Theme" folder to "%windir%*Resources*Themes*" folder basil hides some characters for some reason, follow the image. Just get to it typing the command on the "Run" panel that is on your Start menu.
Now you can set the theme using Desktop Properties : image

Third Step


ENJOY ! It should look like this !

Not on most computers. If you have a sucky video card I suggest closing WinFlip before playing though.

It changes the whole GUI and this is where it consumes lots of RAM.

There's no point making it "Vista like". Just get a Vista if you really want it..
