HOW TO USE:
1. In the downloaded pack, you'll get 2 folders:
=> Fonts (This folder contains Segoe UI fonts required for the theme. Copy them to "%windir%\Fonts" folder.)
=> Theme (This folder contains the main theme.)
2. Copy all contents in "Theme" folder to "%windir%\Resources\Themes\" folder.
3. Now you can set the theme using Desktop Properties.
4. Also make sure you have patched the "uxtheme.dll" file to allow 3rd party visual styles, if its not patched, then download and run the UXtheme Patcher from here:

I tried it on Windows XP FLP on my P200MMx (64 SD, 2 GB HDD, s3trio64v+), works great, I love it!
However i cannot set a transparent background to the icons (it worked with royale noir).
Also the TaskBar is bigger than normal, so the icons on it gets streched, but if I set it smaller, i loose the Close-button (It is set now to 22, 20 woud be good).

^^ To have transparent background on desktop icons, enable "Show shadow on desktop icons" option in System Properties. I have mentioned the details in "Frequently Asked Problems" topic which can be found in "Troubleshooting" section.
Reg. to other problem, you must be using some other DPI settings, set it to Default 96 DPI in Desktop Properties and your problem should be solved.
