Hello, sorry if this is in the wrong spot, wasn't shure where to post
it.

I Have Vista on my HP Laptop, and Installed an old game, Command And
Concer 2. The game took it upon itself to change my settings to Vista
Basic, and reduce my shiny laptop to looking like the first game boy.
Eveything works, it just looks like cripe. I uninstaled the game,
restarted it, reinstalled it, went to the color menue and fiddled
around, and i cant figure it out. Help would be great, thanks.

First of all, try to perform a system restore to a point in time prior to
the installation of this old game. Next, try to reenable Windows Aero in
Control Panel > Appearance and Personalisation > Personalisation > Theme.

Turn back time on your PC with System Restore:
