Make Your Windows XP Look Like Vista

Although Windows Vista is not as popular as Windows XP, it still has some features and effects that many XP users would want to use on their system. Here is a few tips for you.
Vista Transformation Pack will completely change look of your XP including welcome scree, icons, windows’ opacity, Start menu etc. This application will change even sounds and Windows Media Player to Vista style. When you decide to install this software, don’t forget to create a restore point in case you would decide to go back to your previous style.
Transform XP To Vista is similar software to Vista Transformation Pack. What I like most is over-elaborated Start menu. With installation of this application you will receive side panel with Yahoo! Widgets. Transform XP To Vista doesn’t overwrite system files which means you can take the changes back in the future.
Visual Task Tips is an application that views thumbnails of running applications. Just move with your cursor over minimized window of some running application and the thumbnail of the window will appear next to the cursor. This useful application will allow you much better orientation in running applications and opened windows.
WinFlip allows you to use Vista’s 3D user’s interface Aero with many stunning effects. For instance you can list in your opened windows like in a book. Just press buttons ‘Win+Tab’ and all opened windows will line up next to each other. Pressing ‘Tab’ button you can list between them. In case you will find switching between windows slow, you can lower the quality of their viewing.
Keep always in mind that these programs may slow down your system.
