Problem with windowblinds....

Just tried to use theme manager and it wouldn't apply themes....rebooted twice,still didn't work.So I uninstalled theme manager.

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.

It appears you have enabled limited per pixel mode, so WindowBlinds will support per pixel, but with no hardware support.

I am also not familiar with this version of WindowBlinds 6. You had left out the first line of the System Information text, which includes the build and OS (Vista or not) of that installation.

My suggestion would be to uninstall WindowBlinds, restart, ensure the WindowBlinds directory is empty (defaults to C:\Program files\Stardock\Object Desktop\WindowBlinds) then download and install WindowBlinds.
