| cyfer33 Profil: New Penguin | Hi, sorry for posting this (if this has been asked before) but cant find it anywhere on the site. How do I install Brico Pack properly so that I would not have any issues thereafter. 1) Any prerequisites? 2) Run from Safe Mode?
Thanks in advance!

About Bricopacks :
- First, make sure that the pack is compatible with your system (to check you system�s information, right click on �my computer�, then, click on �proprieties� .
Here is the list of compatible systems :
- Windows XP
- Windows XP SP1
- Windows XP SP2
- Windows Server 2003
- Windows XP Media Center (SP1, SP2 or without SP)
- Windows XP Tablet Edition
Be careful, this pack isn`t compatible with 64 bit versions (x64) of Windows XP - You must uninstall other software like Bricopack, ShellPack or CustoPack before the installation of a new Bricopack.
- We don`t guarantee the compatibility of our Bricopack with modified (Gold, Light, LSD) versions of Windows
- You must have administrator rights in Windows XP to install this pack safely.
- If for X reasons your machine not work with the first boot following the installation of the pack, you can restore your system: Put your CD of XP in the reader and launch the restore console. Type "R" at the invites setup. You have the console with prompt "the c:\WINDOWS >", type: "BATCH BricoPackUninst.txt". Type EXIT when the operation finished.

You know what safemode means ? Press F8 during the bootprocess and install the Bricopack in Safemode.
Install one of the new bricopacks, "Crystal Clear" or "Vista Inspirat 2" ... Do a system-restore-point before the install, or make any other backup, like I do with Norton Ghost (or Trueimage) ...  | |
cyfer33 Profil: New Penguin | Thanks for the reply Breakfastclub. Ive used VTP before and I only install such packs in Safe Mode. But now, I would like to try out the much touted BricoPacks. Wish me luck!  | |
Breakfastclub Profil: Penguin Pro | You don`t need luck, I think it will be fine ... (maybe disable the option "IE" when you have IE 7 and disable "Mediaplayer" when you stimm have MP 11) (most people don`t need YZ Toolbar too) | |

Yup I had it installed and everything went smoothly. The only thing I noticed is missing is the Boot Screen which still displays Windows XP. Any way to add a Vista Boot Screen? Btw, why disable IE7 and MP11? You mean with Y'Zs shadows right? | |

Search the forum for "Vista Boot Screen", the Bricopack don´t change the bootscreens, it`s to risky on some PCs. But you can use some programs to do that ... When your IE and MP works fine, everything is okay  | |

cyfer33 Profil: New Penguin | Thanks guys for the help. Oh, one more thing, can ViStart & True Transparancy work with BricoPack? | |

I have tested both ViStart and TT with Vista Inspirat 2, and they work fine | |
cyfer33 Profil: New Penguin | Thank Legace. I guess that TT should work fine too with Yz's Shadow. | |
