Need help not sure what to call it. please look
***IMPORTANT*** i need help from someone with LOTS of experience (a sage). if you dont know windows 7 inside and out you probly wont be able to help me but thanx anyways
hi i recently bought a used acer aspire one netbook and im quite confused about something, ill break it down for ya....
when i bought it and booted it up i looked around and seen the previous owner did a very good cleanup job (might as well have been stock, there was NOTHING) but there was something odd about it, something...wrong O_o...
see, for all intents and purposes it's windows 7 starter. it looks, feels and works like it with a few exeptions
the login screen had a background image for Mac OSX Snowleopard. i thought it was just a custom screen and thought nothing of it until i was going to put a custom screen of my own and even though i did it the same exact way i always do, not with a program, but the manual way everyone smart does, it still showed the snowleopard one (i would post a screencap but the key doesnt work at the login screen).
a few days ago i noticed in some setting/information window i cant remember and it showed the apple logo and osx version right above the windows stuff!
then i noticed alot of the icons (control panel stuff, .exe files, .rar/zip) where those for a mac osx.
i KNOW it's not a theme and so im really thinking that somehow, snowleopard was integrated into windows 7 and it's kinda freakin me out because ive NEVER heard of anything like this before and its like everything i knew about OS's just went down the tubes faster than an unwanted pregnancy on prom night.
so like i said up top, i pretty much need to find an old man with a long beard, a cloak and a tall wooden staff to help. those guys know their stuff lol
