i've asked questions about it before, tried the 1st one, but the 7th one just came out a few days ago. im wondering, if i ever did have problems could i just uninstall it with out it messing up my system files?

how likely is it that it could mess up my system files and cause me to have to reformat? (i've been thru a lot of hdd and hardware problems recently so i don't want to cause and file problems either, need a break from computer problems)

and do you get the aero transparent thing? or do you still have to buy the windows blinds theme for that?

there's no way i am buying vista, wouldn't pay a dollar for it. it is basically a theme, why would i pay for it? does nothing new for me. don't want to get halo 2, and don't need any of its features. just want to know some input on the transformation pack that just came out. been using the zune theme, not sure if i want to mess with system files again and give this theme a try

true, until dx10 theres nothing you NEED. and i here the original zune was incompatible (go figure)

(aero is standard on all but vista home basic. you just need a high end computer to run it smoothly

I wouldn't recommend getting it. When I initially installed it, I didn't have any problems. But then a few weeks later, my computer started to crap up.

I though there were other meidia features missing as well. Is there anything vista basic can't do that xp home can?

I've actually used one of these transformation packs, and they do indeed swap some System files but i experienced no OS instability but problems may surge so i would not reccomend it.

I agree. People tend to exaggerate when in comes to Vista's minor flaws.

ok thanks guys, probably wont try it. dont want to buy it or get anything illegal, so wasnt sure if this theme was a good way to go, but perhaps its not worth the risk
