Yesterday i uninstalled my old version of wb's, rebooted, installed the new version (WB5 4.90d{b}.oo2, rebooted and i thought everything worked. I had the following message:
WindowBlinds 5 BETA Troubleshooting Report:
STATUS : WB+ SRV+ HLP+ UI+
WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this PC.
WindowBlinds appears to be activated on this PC
Your machine supports per pixel borders on WindowBlinds skins.
You have one monitor in total.
(SyncMaster 793DF/793DFX/793MB/788DF) 1 is attached to Intel(R) 82865G Graphics Controller
'NetMeeting driver' also exists as device '\\.\DISPLAYV1', but is not attached to the desktop and is a mirror driver.
'RDPDD Chained DD' also exists as device '\\.\DISPLAYV2', but is not attached to the desktop and is a mirror driver.
Today, upon restarting my pc, all i got was the classic skin. I checked under troubleshooting and now it says:

In wbconfig it still shows the skin as being loaded. Pressing "Apply now" or "Apply skin changes" does not work. I have tried several skins and that is not the problem.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled, rebooting as required so many times i can not count.
I uninstalled Windows FX, so that is not it.
I have tried putting the activate.exe in the WB directory, but clicking on it does nothing. I think i've tried so many times it has stopped working.
I am running WinXP Home 32-bit on a P4 2.8G with 1 gb ram installed.
Anyone have suggestions?
