This is a well known issue and as I understand, Stardock is working on it.

There was a work around for RC SP1. I'm not sure if it works for the final of SP1 though.
The work around assumes you have disabled UAC so turn UAC back on and try DesktopX. If it works you can install Tweak Vista and set it to not prompt you for UAC elevation.

Hi,I also have a similar effect,after install of SP1 the clocks in my color also will not work,they are made with desktop x,so I believe they are all related.  Also on a note of interest,I am posting this using Stardocks Impulse.
