hi all im new here but the problem i seem to be having is i try to enable stylexp but it says that it cant enable my version of windows build and comes up with a list of build numbers does anyone know how to overcome this or a program i can use instaed of style xp thanks

Actually style xp does not support xp sp3. If you want to use style xp you've to use xp sp2 :( But still you can use all themes on this site manually after patching uxtheme.dll file. :)
