Not loading on startup?

Tuesday, September 21, 2004 by Angeloonie | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I recently got the full version, and after installing and finding a nice skin, I apply the skin, but when I reboot the computer it goes back to windows XP classic???

What's causing this?

Running on an AMD 64 3200+/MSI K8N Neo Platinum/1Gb ram/WinXp Pro/SP2 Eng

I had the same problems with my new WindowBlinds...I just put the copied 'wbload' from the folder I installed into and pasted it into the start menu "startup" folder. That worked for me.

Don't know if that helps, but good luck getting your problem worked out.

There seems to be an issue with AMD 64 and SP2 which is allegedly being addressed and a update coming soon.

Actually, if you want to start a program at startup, you should create a shortcut to it.
