WB5 Help

from Stardock Forums
Okay I've had WB5 for awhile and its been pretty good with no issues. But one day I was with my girlfriend and she restarted my comp and WB5 stopped applying skins. I would click on the skin to apply it and it would gimme the ugly classic Windows skin. I have tried reinstalling the program and it still does the same thing. I was wondering if anybody has had this problem and how could I fix it.

If it is the trial of WB 5 your 60 days may be up.

Open the WindowBlinds Configuration screen and click on System Information on the left side. Post that info here.

WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this PC.

Your machine does not support per pixel borders on WindowBlinds skins.

This is because :

Your computer graphics hardware does not support acceleration of per pixel alpha. WindowBlinds requires this for per pixel alphablended borders as without it performance would be poor. Please see if you can obtain new drivers for your graphics hardware. Recent ATI & NVIDIA boards should support this feature. Onboard graphics tend not to.

You have one monitor in total.
