1  Help / Windows 7 / Re: if i login again theme stop working on: May 02, 2009, 12:05:44 pm
I changed the settings.ini and made a new style from original aero.msstyles.

5 reboots, many logoff/login: no crash so far!

It seems the problem is solved (for me at least), thank you.

@Panda X: I already posted some EventViewer information. See post No. 4 in this thread.

Additional information: The crash after login almost never happens running Windows 7 in Virtual PC 2007. I only can remember a black screen or crash with Build 7022. No crash in Virtual PC with later builds 7068, 7077 or 7100.

In Virtual PC Aero is always disabled and the basic theme is used because there is no support of Direct3D Hardware Acceleration. So maybe the problematic part in the .msstyles files saved by VSB is related to Aero !?!

4  Help / Windows Vista / Feature Request: Font Quality on: April 22, 2009, 09:36:49 pm
Would it be possible to add a new entry "not set" to the "Quality" drop-down list in the font selection dialog?

Selecting this entry should omit the Quality:xyz part of the font-property value completely.

This way the font-smoothing setting that the user selected in Control Panel (Standard or ClearType) is always used.

I maybe have the same problem. I changed the aero.msstyles with VistaStyleBuilder and saved it as a new file. The only changes i made were replacing each font entry Segoe,Quality:ClearType to Tahoma,Quality:Anti-aliased
Using the new style with AveStyler with the original system files or patching the system files using UniversalThemePatcher has the same effect:

- Applying the style while logged on works.
- After a reboot the logon screen appears.
- After login the screen is going black and the logon screen reappears
- if i try to login again and again the desktop appears eventually, sometimes after the second try, sometimes after ten or more tries.
- Each failed login creates an event-log entry 1000, faulting application winlogon.exe, faulting module uxtheme.dll, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x000137b4

My system:
- Dell Latitude D620
- Windows 7 x86 7068 and 7077
- VistaStyleBuilder v1.4.0.0
- AveStyler v1.0.0.1
