I can't remember how to change the colour of the Windows XP Start button, I just hate that green. Does anyone remember off hand?

I was sorta interested, found the overclockers link just before you posted it. You're right, thats good to know, but its way too much work for such a simple thing, especially if you marf it up...hehe

my experience with tweaking buttons fonts themes has been > perfomnce drops and if you ever fdisk its a drag to backup

In the end chose to ride the bus its reliable and besides being retarded I fit right in

Is it just the color of the button, or the style? Right click on desktop > properties > Themes and select "windows classic"...

Background colour Ken.
The 3 standard issue alternatives will give a hassle free colour change. Silver, blue or green.

Old addage.... if it ain't broked, don't fix it.

Hey Croc,
I do not like the look of XP so one of the first things that I do is change the start menu and theme back to classic... I agree with the ain't broke, don't fix...

It is the old, gray, square start button for me!
