Yup! Unlike v6.0 & v7.0, this time you no need to buy WindowsBlinds to transform windows into Aero Glass effect. And it's also use 3DFlip (Rendered by WinFlip) featured that enable your windows flip on each others like real Vista effect! http://www.windowsxlive.net/screenshots/vtp/vtp8_flip.jpg

They (Windowsxlive team) also fix some minor bug on previous version. Great Job!

Just for kicks I tried it out. It gave me an "Unsupported OS detected" error when running the exe. I'm on 64-bit Vista Business.

The idea of this program is to make XP look like Vista and i would of thought vista does look like vista in the 1st place.

I'm aware of that. I knew it probably wouldn't work.. I just tried it for the hell of it. Would of been a good laugh if it did install and change the skin.

P.S. Thanks for the thanks :)

yeah i asked as a joke originally.

I've seen people using this mostly on machines that cant run vista - and it makes their slow machines even slower, so i really dont get it...

Just install it in the same way you install other software. Just tick & click 'next'. Leave as

the default setting. Make sure you have enough memory(RAM)~512MB or more .

Any processor, speed about 2.0Ghz or more(dual core is better) and any directx8 or later

version of supported video card (Intel,ATI, or nVidia).

Before installing this software, they recommended you to install

Windows service pack, IE7 & WM Player 11. During the installation, it will ask Where do you

want to apply Vista UI transformation to? You need choose the first choice. Because when

you didn't want this software anymore, you be able to revert back windows system files

back to the original ones. But if you choose the choice 2nd you can't undo it back.

Then, choose the easy way to install it (choose Express Mode). Then it will ask the

component you want to install, tick all options if you want like a 'real vista transformation'.

On the last page click transform button and if they asked for restarting PC, do so.

You mean you can't run the installer? maybe the installer corrupted when downloaded. what size of the downloaded file? the size should be 27.55MB.

Actually, this version can run independently without WindowsBlind. You need WindowsBlind when you want Aero Glass effect like original Vista but only in older version of this software (like v6.0 & v7.0). WindowsBlind is not freeware.

I have VTP6 on my WinXP SP2.

Does anyone know whether I can install VTP8 over VTP6? I seem to recall that when I installed VTP6, I chose not to be able to roll back.

If not, what can I do if I want to install VTP8.0.1.

better you uninstall vtp6 before installing new ones to avoid any compability issues. during the uninstallation they will ask whether u want to keep unrecognise files system. u just keep them all. if not they will ask to insert windows cd to replace with vtp files. It's your choice either ways. make sure u hav win cd if u choose the 2nd choice.

did u check the box to enable transparency effect on Vista Transformation Pack - Welcome Center-> configure user account -> use truetransparency(aero glass effect)?? if yes, did your windows border turn into tranparency? If not, you need to buy WindowsBlind,an desktop enhancement software(very similar to style xp). the link is here http://www.stardock.com/products/windowblinds/ . I guarantee it'll working.

On optimizing setup configuration, u must uncheck the box that set for stability, then check another box above it(moderate resource usage). Then, it'll automatically check those uncheck boxes before.
