Are you using Vista Ultimate 64?
Have you installed MS DreamScene following the instructions on the "error" message?

hehehe , yeah my video drivers are up to date


here is system specs incase someone wana know details cause this is indeed VERRY weird!


Windows Vista ultimate 64bit
OCZ Reaper pc-8500 4GB @ 1066
Intel OX6700 "oc" @3.6GHZ
8800GTX "oc" @ Ultra
Enermax Galazy 1000W
Asus Formula Maximus MOBO
along with much more stuff but everything is up to date.

I didnt have this problem with my Vista Ultimate 32bit ..
so hmm this could be a 64bit issue?

As there can always be conflicts its doubtful as I currently have no problems running Deskscapes. (Vista Ultimate x64)

Question: Can you run just the default Dreamscene files?

It may just be that Deskscapes has detected no skinned GUI and thus doesn't feel like cooperating.

hahahahah eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

well it took me exacly 3 weeks to decide on the power supply now , I choosed the enermax Galaxy SLI edittion cuse of the reviews , and it's PEAK power .. I run 2.5 TB on my home pc , have everything pritty much overclock and my liquid cooling freezone from CoolIT system also takes lots of juice.. i felt i needed this PSU

im sure there is alot of nice ones out there but that one was just great on reviews..
at least the model i took ..


so ok , beside that we havent quite fixed my problem lol , i bought some nice dynamic ones but i guess i wont be using them anytime soon

i didn't mean it isn't a good psu. i prefer pc power & cooling units myself. i have that ram but mine is pc-9200, i think. i originally had the oc-8500 but a stick of it was bad and ocz replaced all of it with the next model up. it's great memory! i want that mobo and an e6850!
