Cool, I remember doing that with Win 95/98 but didn't know you could do it with XP as well. In Win 9x, you did it by opening User.exe and doing almost the exact same thing but with the program WinHacker. (I still have a copy of WinHacker somewhere on a disk, I wonder if it works with XP? Hmmm...) I made my Start button icon look all black with some glowing eyes and teeth. Heh

I know this thread is a lil old, but I am new to the site so...

I can't seem to find the String Table folder anywhere. I searched for it and came up with a file that's in my RivaTuner folder (for ATI OCing) and some other crazy extension file, but no folder for the strings.

Any suggestions out there?
