Hello...
 
Let me start by saying thank you for all your hard work... I finally got tired of xp and needed a change a poof there it was.... :great:  
 
However two issues:::
 
1. It keeps crashing my computer when i use my Avante Browser..  Is there a way to not make it try and skin that browser??
 
2. When i tried to install it on another computer it keep getting stuck about half way thru the installation.... this is a sata drive....
 
the weird thing was on the same computer with the same copy of xp ( both are fresh installs) it installed fine ..... this is a ide drive...
 
any way so i installed it in safe mode with admin but realized it didn't show up when i went back to regular user...
 
so i uninstalled it... from the admin admin in safe mode... but when i went back to regular user parts were still there.....
 
so then i went to safe mode again but then installed it under regular user in safe mode so now it looks right howerer my question is...???
 
if I need to completely remove it ... for xp updates how do i do it???
 
and is it ok after all that???
 
WOOPS ANOTHER QUESTION????   it says that it has  icolorFolder  and i see the folder but.. iit doesn't show up anywere ..... is this an error??
 
 :penguin:  thanks for the great work... and takin time to read this....

Hi majorXP
 
1.  
 
I`m not sure if you can skin Avante Browser, check the browser-homepage. For browser-problems, maybe uninstall the browser and install it again (backup your bookmarks before).
 
 
 
2.
 
Install and uninstall bricopacks in safemode (press F8 during bootprocess)

2. I did all that but stuff was still left behind..... any way to find everything left behind...

As Legace said, when you right click a folder It'll have a pop-up menu saying icolor Folder.
You can use it to change the color of that particular folder ;)

 

iColor Folder has the option to change the color of the folders so there is only one option for it (that is changing the color :mdr: )

 

If you're talking about new folder styles' you'll have to manually put the skin file ( a dll file as I recall) in the installation location

 

Note* iColor Folder can only use one skin type at a time ;)

 

Question 1 :ar: Your browser may be conflicting with the Bricopack's internet explorer files. Try re-installing the browser after you install the pack ;)

 

Question 2 :ar: See here

hi neil - im using crystalxp pack inspirat 2 - where can i get a copy of inspirat 2 bootscreen and signon screen ? quaz1957@aol.com
 
ps: ive used tuneupstyle since 2006 for styles/signons..but, my current boot/signon isn't the vista inspirat version. if u can assist, much appreciated. ty
 
why doesn't crystalpack vista inspirat2 have the appropriate boot/signon screens included? the screensaver for vista inspirat is great!
 
if u have a copy of the boot/signon screens then, i can incorporate them in my pc.

Hi quaz1957 and Welcome to CrystalXp :loveit:

 

Bricopack doesn't come with a boot screen ;) So you've to use an additional software lilke BootSkin to change your Windows XP boot screen if that you're asking from me from the first place :yes:

 

Did you mean the logon screen by 'signon screen' ?
Bricopack always comes with a logon screen :yes:
If you can't see your Inspirat2 Logon ut might be,

 

1 :ar: You haven't selected it during the bricopack installation
(you've to re0install the pack if you've missed it )

 

2 :ar: Your machine is using the Windows classic logon
(you can change this by going to Control Panel>Users>Change the way users logon/logoff)

Neil - thanks for your considerate reply and for comprehending my funamental question. when i installed bricopack, it gives you 4 options before you click-next. i chose the 3rd option, which includes rocketdock. can you tell me which option in brico that has bootscreen included and where can i find the appropriate logonscreen? ...thanks mate!
 
currently, im using vista-aurora boot/logon screens..which is pretty but, not really authentic to vista-inspirat 2.

Just go into the WINDOWS folder, press CTRL and F and search for Bricopack and delete everything that it finds :)

Bootskin doesn't work with Inspirat 2...I tried it several times...though it shows the bootskin i really wanted, but after the bootscreen appears, it shows a blue screen saying that "blah blah blah, to prevent damage to your system"...
 
what i did after that error message, was to turn off my computer and i choose "start windows from where it worked successfully" something like that and deactivated my chosen bootskin...and it worked  again....
 
i tried it several times, painful uninstall and install operations... :winktongue:  :winktongue:
