Changing windows 7 home basic edition themes

Hi everyone..
I just bought a laptop with a Windows 7 Home Basic Edition OS installed on it..
I just want to know how can i customize my themes..
I found some themes on the internet..and i didnt know how can i apply it to my laptop..

i need some help please guys

Have a look at these, I don't think you'll be able to change themes,

Can Themes Work On Windows 7 Home Basic

problem with windows home basic , plz help

helpn installing theme for windows 7 home basic

thanks derekimo for the links..
but sir..i tried using the patcher given..but it does nothing ..
i still can change my themes ..i still can use the themes that i have downloaded from the internet..
is there any other way?or can you please give me the procedures so i could apply those themes on my laptop..

thanks in advance sir..

The point I was trying to show in all those links, was that it didn't work.

Unless someone else using home basic comes along and explains how they

did it, I don't see this working for you. You can either upgrade to home premium

or try to find a third party program that will work.

Here's a tutorial that may be of some help to you,

What themes are you trying to use anyway?

ahh.. i get it sir..tnx tnx :)
but sir..i tried what's stated in the latter link u gave..
and the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor says that my hardware meets all the requirements..and it passed all the checkpoints..so i proceed with the download of the aero enabler..

i used it and now i dont know where to go ..
please sir ..guide me..
tnx tnx

by the way..here's the theme that i want to apply to my laptop

Derek, and I are trying to tell you it will not work with your version of windows. PERIOD. You can get it to work by upgrading to Home Premium, or higher.

When you right click on your desktop do you get a context menu like this

If not, I don't see how you are going to change themes.

That's why it's called basic, even the tool in that tutorial says this

There might be something out there that that claims to let you change themes

but your best bet would be to use anytime upgrade to home premium.

Sorry I can't be more help to you.
