Windows 7: Can't change my theme!! :(

Hey people. I installed Windows 7 (64 bit) not too long ago. I activated it etc and it's all working mighty fine. I boot my computer up today and realise it's stuck on some cruddy looking windows classic theme. Sure enough I think the problem can be rectified by changing the theme through the personalisation. It doesn't work. I tried rebooting....

Here's a picture of what I mean.

Is there a way to sort this out without restoring everything to factory settings? I've installed a lot of applications and it'd take a lot of time to put them back on.

Thanks guys.

Sorry the link above doesn't work.

it looks fine to me

Gah it's still doing it!!! The link that is. Screw the link. Sorry.

ok-anyway i got my theme on windows classic-it boosts up the performance

That's cool Domii. I'm running a very powerful laptop. I doubt the performance of the laptop would be effected much given a very trivial adjustment. Appearance matters too.

ok-i only do that because i have just reinstalled vista-slowed down everything

open the snipping tool and snip all of a page you are viewing.save it. and do the stuff with tinypic-that should do it

Or....
