WindowBlinds allows you to totally change the theme of your computer, and ObjectDock is the menu bar on a Mac computer. If you have any questions, just post here.

did it a WHILE AGO. SLOWS DOWN YOUR COMPUTOR LIKE HELL

Been there, done that, got the T shirt
It was cool for a while, but isn't very friendly on your computer.
I also tried VistaOSX for a bit when windows blinds trial ran out.

It doesn't slow my computer down at all :\

Nah, Windows blinds is bad because you have to pay for it.

Download VistaGlazz (download.com) or a uxtheme patcher if you have xp. Run it, restart, you'll now be able to use 3rd party themes. Go to DeviantArt and look up a Mac theme, download, set it as your theme, put the bar at the top then download rocket/object dock and use it.

That's what I was going to say. My friend changed all the default Windows stuff so he can't change it back

btw I use RKLauncher

There is a command prompt to fix damaged files, is how I fixed files changed by VistaOSX.

Good thing about vistaglazz is that it makes a backup and a hit of a button is all it takes to revert to the old files.

Uxtheme patcher:



???

You're using Vista, use Vistaglazz.

I tried getting a Hackintosh once, then I realized it was illegal.
Still, this is pretty close to it.

~D

I wouldn't consider it illegal. You're only breaking the EEULA....

It's no different than jailbreaking an iphone.

lul.

Looks cool but I have to share my computer with 2 other people so not worth the yelling at me saying "Blah I don't know how to use this.. Blahh blah!"

Maybe it's WindowsBlinds that's blocking it?

I don't know, that's really funky.

What's so cool about a mac skin?

Nothing. They're really not practical at all.

I'd rather have a very simple skin (not Caboose simple ), but simpler than Vista's.

I use the MaxClear theme with a custom start menu button.

Funny how no one mentioned FlyAKiteOSX. It's the most thorough reskinning of a PC I've ever seen, although it only works on XP.

There's nothing wrong with Windows Standard. I'm even considering switching to High Contrast. I kid, but i might if it didn't change the actual webpages.

I really am still considering a hackintosh, since macs cost a fortune and a half

And aren't that good anyway? Really though, Windows for Gaming and some editing, Linux for everything else. I don't see OSX in the picture there.

Yea, but having a hackintosh is waaaaaaaaay more impressive than linux.

And with all the prehacked versions of OSX, it's really easy to do. I just don't have any computers I'm willing to use as a test subject.

Impressive? Maybe, but in no way better

It's a sort of...do it because you can kind of thing.

Thats the same with me, can't afford to mess up my laptop, and the old desktop is still used by mum/dad, so they wouldn't be too pleased, the only ones left is a centuries old Tiny Pc which would never handle it, which I think is in pieces now anyway.

So how would you make an XP computer look like a Mac?

Download the xp uxtheme patcher. Run it. Follow the directions.

Then go to deviantart and then download one of these.

WHen i tried the uxtheme patcher, I got the same message as tawk. And yes, before you ask, I'm using XP.

There is a xp to mac pack thing, but for the life of me can't remember the name. I'll see if I can find.
I think this might be it

Since Redmonke's instructions didn't work, I took things into my own hands, and ended up with this:

That patcher worked for me and my friend...

It didn't work for me, so I manually replaced it.

Manually replacing has never worked for me.

Which is still bad .

For people afraid of patching files, this allows you to do it without patching.
