DX Widgets and Gadgets not working
Sunday, March 13, 2011 by BigDogBigFeet | Discussion: Object Desktop
Hi,
I've been working with my new Win 7 Home Premium 64bit based PC. I've lately been installing suites. I can't get DX gadgets and widgets working. DX runs but... themes only.
Could something be blocking it. Maybe Threatfire?
Puzzled. ![]()
edit: A few do work like Gloss Mint, Fire, and Aero Midnight. Still puzzled.![]()

What version of DX are you running BigDogBigFeet?

I discovered the solution, I think. I first have to right click on the program, select properties and then tell Windows to run it in XP compatibility mode. That works for Gadgets.
