I Want My Old Dashboard Start Menu Back. Help!

October 23, 2002 3:19 PM from

I activated the smartcard skin for dashboard 1.5 on my PPC. Now when I switch to another skin, the start menu background remains in the "smartcard" skin theme. I just want the plain old start menu background back. Anyone know how to do this?

Thanks

Go into the smartcard.dsh text file and comment out the line which loads smartcard's .tsk file : "// TodayFile = smartcard.tsk". After this, smartcard won't change your startbar skin by loading its .tsk file when you use smartcard. Then use the Today menu to reselect your old Today theme ( .tsk file). Hope that helps.

I seem to have the opposite problem. I am trying to install a dashboard theme/skin and it changes everything except the top Start bar. it retains the original start graphics and settings (i.e. clock).

Any suggesitons?

Thanks.
