Last night I was trying to install a new vista theme to my computer. Not really know what I was doing I think I deleted something important. After I rebooted and logged on this pop-up shows up:

dwm.exe - Unable To Locate Component
This applicatoin has failed to start because UxTheme.dll was not found.
Re-Installing the application may fix this problem.

I click okay and the same pop-up appears for explorer.exe.

After all the pop-ups go away my screen is completely black! I can't do anything besides Ctrl+Alt+Delete. Im using my sister's computer right now to write this post.

If anyone can tell me how to fix this I would really appriciate it! I have no clue what to do!!!

Hello,

Do you have the vista installation disk or a repair CD/DVD? You should be able to repair vista using these.

- Let us know how it goes.
