What problems are you having?

Screenshots will help.

OK i have a problem of WB not working in XP64. it works fine when i boot to xphome.

kinda strange i got it to work buy clicking on the only ico i could see my computer.

then it would draw the rest of icons and the task bar would be missing some of my start up items even WB was missing from the tray.

but its screweing up my sys things like system restore, defrag, even my add/remove in control panel was missing and a few other parts of xp are messed up.

but i boot in to safe mode and remove WB and everything is working again?

and befor you say anything yep i tryed the free ver, the hacked ver and the retail ver last.

i can get the old ver to install and works fine but ver 5 is broken in xp64 lol after all this i see that you can remove WB from the Star dock center. any ideas i relay would like it working in xp64?

hm this is a new install around 2 week old i rarely use this os XP64 i just wanted to test out WB in it.

i might try a repair install but as for formating and reinstalling.

i think i see where the problem is in xp64 you have  Program Files (x86) and Program Files folders and the @#$%*&# cracked ver installed in both some how so it left parts in it. it was my fault i tryed running the ver 4 and the cracked one in 32bit compatability mode when installing.

ill take a look at the regestery later on but i think i can get it working buy striping out the leftover junk in Program Files (x86) and Program Files

thanx for getting me thinking. i had to reinstall the cracked ver and watch where it installed to to see the problem

hold on now i was not looking  for sympathy i was looking for some ideas on how to make it work.

im so used to haveing to patch a game or app to make it work i try almost anything even cracks

 i pay for my apps and games i tryed the cracked version out of desperation trying to get it to work in xp64 i had the payed for ver working and still working on the same sys just under a diferetn OS. my problem was with the old freeware install when i went with ver 5 that came with the package.

granted installing the cracked ver made things worse. but i had a problem to start with.

the new skins would load but when i rebooted it lost the icons desktop was showing the wallpaper and a few icons but not all, not the problems others were haveing with blank desktop or realy slow loading. mine was missing things.

ok 3 hrs later clean install of XP64 and im back where i started sort of.

i now have a nice clean desk top no icons at all .

only thing instaled is avast and drivers i had to have "sound video chipset and windows updates"

this time it BSOD and reset my sys .  atleast the last time i had a part of my desk top.

i have no idea what is causeing the problem.  its getting late im giveing up for the night.

thanx for any ideas or sujestions.

Just to clarify things... Citizen Mangyrat is listed as a current customer...ergo he has purchased WB....however the problem seems to be this desire to play with 'altered' versions as well...causing issues.

Now, if a clean format/install [and unadulterated WB download/install] is still causing problems then it's likely to be an issue with the 'success' of the OS install...eg appropriate drivers, etc...
