Applying skins now freezes desktop

Tuesday, April 22, 2008 by WebGizmos | Discussion: OS Customization

Ever since the last few updates I've been having a problem after applying a skin. Everything except for my cursor freezes. Objectdock doesn't work...taskar isn't getting skinned...can't even open the startmenu to reboot.

Any ideas whats going on here?

WindowBlinds version : WindowBlinds 6.1 (build 52 x86)

WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this PC
WindowBlinds appears to be activated on this PC
Your machine supports per pixel borders on WindowBlinds skins.

Ok...Still having this same problem. After changing a skin...the windows part of the skin changes...then everything freezes...Objectdock doesn't work...taskar isn't getting skinned...can't even open the startmenu to reboot. The only thing that still works is CursorXP. I have to reboot every time I change a skin.

Any ideas...again.
