Windows 2000 color scheme
 

Sometime back, someone posted a link to software that would allow the
Windows 2000 color scheme to be added to the appearance tab/scheme of the
control panel/display of Windows 98. I recently upgraded to Windows 98 SE
and lost that ability.

Anyone remember what that link was and provide same?

TIA

(1) "Control Panel, Display, Settings tab, Advanced button", &
(2) Put a check into "Enable Video Taskbar Icon".

Now, click the icon that newly appears in your Tray. Does it seem to do
what you want?

Oh, color scheme. Uhhhh... try a new Theme...

To install Desktop Themes, if they are not already in the Control Panel
or in the START menu...
1. START, Settings, Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, Windows Setup
tab.
2. Check "Desktop Themes"; click "Details"; check the themes you want;
"OK" twice.
3. Perhaps, re-boot.

Some themes require "high color". To get "high color":
1. Right click the Desktop & select Properties
2. Click the "Settings" tab
3. Use the "Colors" dropdown menu to select "high color"
4. Be prepared. It may ask your permission to restart the computer.

I understand that's best; however, it can also be done at: "R-Clk
Desktop, Properties, Appearance tab, & select a different 'Scheme' in
the dropdown selector". This will also get the fonts, colors, et al,
right, across applications, without trying to micro-manage inside the
"Item" dropdown menu, which one may live to regret.
