Can not Choose XP style buttons or windows ?
Posted by Davep on September 27th, 2005


Hello all.
I can not figure out why my buttons and windows are all displayed in
2000 style.

When I go to display properties, appearance I only see 'Windows
Classic Style' in the 'Windows and buttons' dropdown list.

It used to display everything fine in XP style and now I have no
choice to set it to XP style.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Umm. It is a standalone PC, not part of any domain.
Not networked to any other computers in any way.

Not sure if that answers your question ?

Thanks.
