Ok fellas I have a few programs here to help me make my XP look like Vista.
They are:
-Vista cursers
-Windows Vista Sound Scheme
-Uxtheme
-Vista Iconpack 3.0
I still need VistaXP VS 2.0 by kol Visual style theme but cannot find it anywhere. Also I am not 100% sure how to run these files as I have never had any luck with themes and such. If anybody can help me out even a little bit I would be so greatful lol. I am anxious to have a new look for my PC, I am seriously tierd of the same old style ya know. Well best of luck guys and thanks a lot.

You could try out a program called Vista Transformation Pack 4, ive used it and it automatically does the sound scheme, cursors, and icon, and all the goodies youd like, I think it even has the aero glass feature too, but I can't remember.
EDIT: Heres a link http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/...ion-Pack.shtml

Here's the file you wanted:

VistaXP VS 2.0

You will need a program called StyleXP to run it. Download the trial/buy it from: TGTSoft StyleXP

When you've got both, install both to your Program Files.

Make sure you select to run StyleXP as 'Use no system resources'

Then load up StyleXP and under the 'Visual Styles' tab, you should see the VistaXP theme in here. Select it and hit 'Apply To Current Theme', then it will do the usual theme-changing XP business and utput your new theme.

Transparency, etc, can be added from the Transparency tab, and so on.

I wouldn't reccomend changing your Boot Screen.

Hope this helps

Never tried the 2.0 thing, but the Vista Transformation Pack is awesome, you select what you want and dont want to be installed, it make a system restore for you, its really easy to install, and it looks great, theres like 4 different versions of vista themes on it, from what I remember like the different betas and stuff, heres the link again http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/...ion-Pack.shtml

I use WindowBlinds, it is $20 but you can install it on all of your PCs while only paying for it once lol so its really worth it, the skin I'm using was called Vista 1.4 but from what I hear Microsoft made them take it down because it was too much like the real Vista

The WindowBlinds Vista 1.4 theme can be found on the CrystalXP website...

Vista 1.4

I have not used this theme yet so I may give it a try when I get home along with a nice CrystalXP icon theme.
