Okay,
I installed a style (with stylexp) but i have a problem...
I got tons of progrtams in my 'All Programs' menu (go to start all prgrams and that...ya) either way, with the new style, the menu goes out of the page (it's 4 colums) how can i fix this?

delete some of those programs... im not too sure, maybe the theme does not allow for the programs ti create a new menu if there is more than one column, try another theme.

the origonal windows xp theme is like that also lol.. well not as bad.
But if you hover over the 'contrle panel' on the start, you will see that it does not create colums but it makes your scroll up/down.

Is that possiable for the menu in hte all programs also?

ive never had this problem, reboot your ocmputer, maybe that is the problem or reinstall stylexp.

ya, if i had 3 there should be no prob. Since i got 4 the 4th one goes out of the screen... also... i dled an icon set and set it, i really don't like it so i want to go back to the default icons of windows. How can i do this though? i click the windows default icons w/e but it still won't make all the icons (folders and etc) go back to their defaults :S

you may have to do that individually for each folder, or go into stylexp and choose an icon set there, they have pretty cool ones. as to your menu problem, i have no idea, i haven't encountered that problem yet.

when your in style XP , there is a button on the left side that says icons , and in there you will find a icon option that says " Windows XP Default '

Im thinking you can get another column to fit if you just make it a larger res Very Happy (by larger i mean bigger numbers....eg. 1152X864 compared to 1024X768) On mine, i use 1152X864, and i can fit a good 4-5 columns (by estimating) But i have ME, i dont know how wide XP things are... :/
