ok i found the problem. my start menu was set to "classic start menu". i changed it to start menu and now i have the vista theme start menu. but....

i am now having trouble with the left side of the start menu overlapping the words on the right side of the menu.

any fixes for this? i looked back and saw someone else have this problem and tried the solution but it didnt work.


thanks in advance guys.

I would suggest using Vistart. It looks and acts exactly like the real Vista start menu. Just give it a try.

there are dozens of vista themes that emulate the real start button of vista.
go to deviantart.com and search for vista styles
