Nope!! Just downloaded the Windows Theme from deviantart, put it into C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes folder.. and simply double click it!! Or change the windows theme in the Display Settings..

But.. I noticed (and i don't know why) that on some computers, it ain't that easy. So I just use Tune-UP Utilities to force the theme on, and it works fine. =) it's a Full Version 30 day trial.. so you can apply the theme and uninstall it if you don't like the software =)

Steps:
1) Open Tune-Up Utilities
2) Customize Windows (on the left)
3) TuneUp Styler (on the right)
- Then it opens up TuneUp Styler 2
4) click 'Select a visual style for the windows and buttons under Windows XP'
5) under Visual Styles there's an Add drop down box, click that
- Then select Install Visual Style From File...
6) Locate the Desktop.msstyles in \windows\resources\themes directory
7) Click Apply Visual Style and you're good to go.

DOWNLOAD THEME (right click save target as.. into \windows\resources\themes directory) 3828kb

WINAMP 5.x CLASSIC SKIN (right click save target as) 88kb

Good Luck! Let me know if anyone else has done this =)
