Vista Appearance

Can I make Windows Vista to appear as Windows XP or Classic? I have tough
time finding files and settings.

Thanks!

Re: Vista Appearance

Like the MVP suggested - Controlpanel- Appearance.

But Windows Classic resembles ( a very strange ) Win98/2000 look.
Windows XP (Luna blue) Look is simply not there, only Vista Basic which
comes nearest to the XP-like, but has also some uglyness

Right click Start and choose Properties. You can tick for classic mode.

I never used XP look. I think I saved some resourcesbecause surely, XP
would be more demanding than Win98 look.

It is strange to reply to you Ian. we met elsewhere.
