I am having problems with my AlienGUI theme manager.
Whenever i apply any suite, it gives me only the Windows classic theme.

I have WindowBlinds installed.

Please help me.
Thanks

WindowBlinds 5.0 System Information Report:

STATUS : WB+ SRV+ HLP+ UI+ TRAY+

WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this PC.

WindowBlinds appears to be activated 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.

(Plug and Play Monitor) 1 is attached to VIA/S3G Graphics

Here are two screenshots that i took while applying the theme.
I was having WinXP style before applying.
After applying it changed to Classic. Icons and Wallpaper change to Invader style. but not the windows.

WOW, yeah I am also having a major problem. When I set XenoMorph or any skin (other than windows XP standard) as my theme Mozilla starts bugging out. It's the only program that does it I think and it jiggles up and down cnstantly, but you know Xenomorph is an AWESOME skin so if anyone knows how to fix this please help.

Try clicking on View/Toolbars and un-check the Bookmarks Toolbar in Mozilla. That should fix the jiggling.

jiggling in mozilla/firefox is generally tied to:

bookmark toolbar
extensions
browser skin (not Wb skin)

try adding to/removing from bookmarks or just closing bookmarks



Shrihari - did you peruse the link from reply #3?

Basically, AlienWare licensed a special version of the program(s) to be used with only their branded skins - have you checked with them to see if they have any updates?
