Okay. I changed the shellstyle for aero because I wanted a green look, and then I switched it back to the original shell.

I'm not sure if this is normal or not, but I don't remember the transparency being like this..

Did I mess up? Or is this normal?


When I click OUTSIDE OF THE PROGRAM:

Basically, when I click the program the transparency turns to a semi-transparent white-ish background, and when I click outside of it - it turns completely transparent.

When customising various things with windows for example cursors or themes using 3rd party products or changing scripts yourself you always run the risk of screwing up some vital file here and there or even some reg keys. the best bet is to try and repair it using the vista cd of maybe even a system restore to before you changed it.

Thank you! I was beginning to think no one would reply. :)

I've actually decided to take the computer back. More problems have developed and it seems that after the warranty ends, it'll probably break down in a month or so.
( Audio skips, touchpad messing up, keys sticking mysteriously ( i treat it like a diamond ring, so i don't understand ), blue screens, etc. )

Thanks again, so much. :)
