Some final touches to make XP/Vista look like Windows Seven. Two things that I made for myself to make my XP computer look like Windows Seven. I am now giving them away free for you to download.
The two things are a Wallpaper and a Feedback button program (thing program appeared in the following screenshot: http://www.playfuls.com/images/upload/news/Windows7desktop.jpg and another one showing the full program). I have recreated everything to the best of my ability.

IMPORTANT! To run the program you may require this: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=333325FD-AE52-4E35-B531-508D977D32A6&displaylang=en
Note that the Windows Seven taskbar (thing holding the start button and quick launch icons)will be 1.7 times higher. So I advise that you right-click and unlock your taskbar so you can then stretch it out. This is a good thing as you have more quick launch room and more program room. In my layout, I have space for 6 small quick launch icons and two rows of programs. This also allows me to display the day and the date (depending on the theme). The Taskbar is meant to have larger quick launch icons which you can get by going into control panel, appearance and themes, settings,advanced and tick use large icons. This makes all your icons bigger like in Vista (pretty much the same as Windows Seven). Warning: Most Vista themes hide the icons in the startmenu beside My Documents and My Pictures so it is advised you don’t use large icons.
Another adjustment you can make is right clicking My Documents in the startmenu and clicking rename. Then delete the “My”. Vista took away the my as everything had that name. So just do the same for everything, my network places, my videos etc.
If you want me to show you how to do any of these things, just comment and I will show you how in detail.

If your question is if it will work in a computer with only 256mb of RAM, then yes. It does not use that much RAM.

In response to cvhijgyu7’s comment:
“amigo thats vista -.-”
This video was intended to make your computer looked like Windows 7. Windows 7 in the early stages looked like Vista so therefore it was pretty similar to the untrained eye.
However, this is not Vista, this is in fact XP. So I managed to jump ahead two generations of Windows

READ THIS BEFORE YOU POST:
– If you are about to say, “I have full version of Windows 7 and this doesn’t look like it” then read on
- Windows 7 didn’t always look like the final full release version

Yes I wonder why, maybe its because this is of Windows 7 one year ago? Or maybe it is because this video was uploaded one year ago?

I’m guessing the mass of comments on this video is because of the official release of Windows 7. In which case I am guessing you only found out about Windows 7 recently.

Thats because your a noob to Windows 7. Check the date dude. I’m a noob to windows 7 for only following it back then.

PS. Sorry if I am being rude, but so many people have said the same thing because of the recent release of Windows 7.

This does look like Windows 7. Let me explain, you are newbie to Windows 7. You downloaded the beta a few months ago and thats where you first found out about it.
If you actually knew about Windows 7 and had been following it for quite a few years then you would realize that this did actually look like Windows 7.
