re: Question about 'My Taskbar is windows classic instead of XP.. Monday, February 28, 2005 at 4:25 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Rogerious (2 messages posted) The problem I'm having is similar but when I select the Windows XP theme the screen goes to black and white (which is normal) then it becomes frozen. When I try to call up Task Manager (Cntrl Alt Del) that pops up, I select Task Manager, then the window disappears - the system remaining frozen. I can only force a reboot at this point. I thought it may be a virus or adware - my AV program, Panda, protection level only goes to Low now. So I ran Spybot and it found a bunch of gunk which is no more; rebooted and still can't get Windows XP theme going. Also, I tried all of that luna stuff, up and down and all I got out of that was it trying to change the desktop theme to Windows XP where it did it's thing and freeze on me.
