Apple OS conversion for XP: Where is it Lynch?

**Big Booger** · August 14th, 2003, 11:31 AM

Lynchknot you posted a very nice looking conversion for Windows Xp that changes it nearly to the exact specs of OSX. Have they released it officially yet? do you have a link? Are there any issues with it?

Thanks bud.

There is a professional install/uninstall package being made but if you want to do it manually here is the thread with info: http://www.aqua-soft.org/board/index...topic=5064&hl=

Here is another transformation pack with installer but not as complete:

I'm waiting for the pro installer pack.

There were some problems but they have been fixed. Here is the thread: http://aquaxp.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2045&st=0

Forbidden

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Getting that message.

Hmm, i'll let them know - there might be leech protection.

Here's my desktop:

yup, there is file protection. I can ftp it to you if you want (24.7mb) or you can grab it on site: http://aquaxp.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2045&st=75

Maybe hold off for a few:

since my uninstaller never worked before I made a new version of the installer that will unintstalll.

**Conan** · October 12th, 2003, 10:44 AM

I installed it. So far it's ok but I think the Jaguar theme is lame.

**lynchknot** · October 20th, 2003, 18:12 PM

Ok here is the new one (Pack's complete system file transformation - installer by Croka). Windows update wiped out some files in the old version so this one was made with the most current files.

I tried it and it works perfectly.

This includes an almost identical shell32 as the one I was offering and many more file replacements. You can also choose if you want mac dialog or not.

If you have installed the previous, uninstall the old one. If you have changed any system files in the past, just run search for .bak and delete all .bak out of system32 and windows - directy from the search window.

Uninstalling the old one left my Windows useless. Good thing I had an image to restore from.

Doesn't sound promising.

**lynchknot** · October 21st, 2003, 05:09 AM

No problems here, but I did not install the first one. I manually installed files the first time - so I just deleted .bak files and ran this installer - works perfectly for me.

Sorry Conan......

*edit - I went to read the forums. They are recommending to delete backups then run installer.
