use sfc/scannow. this will reset any system files you may have themed, ie .folders. wmploc , system clock etc, but should sort your problem, then re theme your pc. i believe you dont really need gamebooster. you havent filled in your system spec so i cant be sure but gamebooster is for pretty old ish machines ie vista with 1 GB of ram

SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker - Windows 7 Forums

Thank you, Im trying that right now..

Well, so far nothing has helped. I have tried every single thing you guys suggested, but I cant get Aero back. Should I contact the Microsoft Client Service? Tough I dont want to get an automatic answer like "Right click on your desktop, select Personalization and click on Color & Appearance".

You could try a Repair Install

Well, believe it or not, but the problem is fixed. Or something like that. No, I did not get Aero working, but I got the right color to the taskbar. If you view the pictures on my first post, you'll see the taskbar is on the left side of the screen. I accidentaly dragged it on the bottom of the screen and this is the result.

Did you ever have the right color when you had the task bar on the left?
It looks like Aero is working to me now.

No, I downloaded the theme after Aero stopped working.

Restore uxtheme.dll from an original instalation and choose the official Aero Theme.
