SomeoneE1se Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 well with the info I have it might be because you're using 'patched' software to change the look of windows.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renegadecanuck Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Skinning software isn't illegal. But ya, it does look like something else is less than above board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychoaliendog Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 What are you using for themes? I used UXTheme Multi Patcher from Neowin, and I don't remember having problems installing SP2, but just in case, try uninstalling it and then try installing sp2.

VaKo Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Your best bet with SP2 is to slipstream in onto a new install disk and then doing a clean install. It can be upgraded, but if you have the chance, don't do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jool Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Windows does not take kindly to you trying to make it look like a mac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ABC Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 why would you make your XP look like a mac O.o just buy a mac if you like that look and if you just want an alt to windys just get a unix distro preferbally a linux distro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renegadecanuck Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Neo, maybe he likes the look of macs, but wants to game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparda Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Perhaps he can't afford a mac. Although I won't be surprised if Apples prices begin to drop as a result of there increased popularity. I want a MAC, but I just can't afford one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaKo Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 I'd totally buy a Mac if I was minted... and I could upgrade them ...or if the service packs weren't £100 a pop ...or if OSX didn't piss me off so much. In fact the only thing I would buy a mac for is a dedicated graphics workstation. Which I can do cheaper with a PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalito Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 I made the mistake of buying a mac while in high school because I was really heavy into photography. Trust me, it may just be that the powerbook that i have sucks but I really didn't enjoy the switch to much. I went back to windows for games and now I use Linux for everything else. Macs are just all fancy looking. I soon came to find out that I wasn't trendy enough to sport the "Mac" look. Plus the powerpc chips blow.

renegadecanuck Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 1. The Macbooks and Macbook Pros aren't really good neough for decent games. 2. There's a premium on Macs in terms of price. 3. Running Windows on Bootcamp is slower than running Windows on a pure PC, since there is emulation of hardware to a certain extent (Macs use Firmware, PCs use BIOS) 4. Unless you're doing a lot of GFX/Video editing, there's no real point in using a Mac over a PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
