I think you can change that using your system32 files.
I'd give you a guide but my computer won't let me open my local disk D due to "pc angel". It's bullcrap but I can't bypass it.

Ninja "UXTheme patcher" (it's free), and run it. Then you can use unsigned visual styles. No performance hit of any sort either.

Visual styles that lack the special signature Microsoft puts on official ones (Luna, Royale, and Zune), which locks them out and prevents them from working.

yeh im using UXTheme too. Visual Styles works the same way too.

I go to winmodify.net to get my skins/themes.

Click VisualStyles link ----> find your skins/themes

note: skins work with both uxtheme and visual styles

Look for the "royale" theme. it's an official microsoft release and looks a LOT better then the normal XP one. Plus, you don't need any third party programs.
