Very strange going's on...

Installs with no errors. Reboot and text in config window indicates all ok:

Everything looks good, apply a theme, and Windows Classic shows up. Yikes. Go back to the Display dialog, and on the Appearance Tab (yea it's a property sheet), I click on the list box for Windows and Buttons. Windows Classic only visible. (Before WB installation, XP Silver was the theme.)
Zoinks! Back to %sysroot%\resources\themes to install Luna. Luna installs as a .theme and as a .msstyle. NP, but open the Display Dialog back up and
presto, disabled Windows and Buttons list, no Add/New WB buttons, all seems totally fubar'd.
That was 5+ restarts ago. Out to Kelly's and run the various reg's to reset the registry, but nothing gets me back to Windows XP style staying visible, and any WB buttons to apply. BTW--each time I do try to apply WB theme, it reverts back to Windows Classic.
Any mystic registry patch or the like to reset the whole mess? What's perhaps fubar'd if even the Windows XP style does not show. And yes, I have checked all the usual items (Performance tab, Themes service on, etc.) Thoughts, ideas? Or any medicine bags sitting around? (
