Windows XP: is there any theme that looks like Windows ME and 98?

Windows XP has a built-in Windows 2000 theme that you can select, which is basically the same theme as Windows Me. (Even better: the mouse cursor will have a nice subtle shadow that is missing in Windows Me.)
Startup and shutdown will be a lot tougher, though. Not sure if there are any patches out there that can mod those.
yes i use that Classic theme... but i love Windows ME theme(even the OS had several problems), that's why 😉
2000/ME are also my favorite icon sets and unique to those two systems. It's difficult to replace all the XP icons with those but trivial to match almost everything else with a custom theme file. My Computer, etc are easy to define in the theme but others like Control Panel are difficult to replace.
to be honest, even WinXP, isn't be MS-DOS(but Command Prompt), i think is much more stable than Windows 98\ME or even 2K... because some MS-DOS games are working better on WinXP than older versions(tested by me... ok the PC is more younger than Windows ME\98) 😉
ok.. with sound emulation 😜
XP's startup is an entirely different VGA mode without a color cycle, so if there's any recreation of the boot screen, it'll never be the same. For icons, this may get into DLL hackery territory and there WAS a special theming program out there that could do that for XP and 7.
i belive theres 1, but i can't find it. and isn't official

I made a windows 95 theme for Windows 7 once. Had a lot of registry patches. I wonder if I can find it
