I have a problem that I can't find the answer for in the docs, unless I overlooked it. Anyway whenever I try to install a new theme abnd get to the moduall install part it has me download more moduals that I already have and then they and the theme won't even work. How do I correct this.

A little more information might be helpful here... what do you mean "the theme won't even work"? Does it display an error message? Multiple error messages? Nothing at all? Does the popup work? What about ctrl-alt-f1? Does it format your harddrive? What about the module downloading part, does it successfully download all modules it needs? Which themes have you tried that show this behavior?

sorry about that was tired when i wrote it.
ok when i go to install the theme I get to the part where it says install moduals. and normaly they instal fine and the theme works but now all i get is a download manager popup telling me i need to download the moduales. so i download them and when it finishes the install I get nothing no popup not anything that i can work with on that theme so i use ctrl-alt-f1 to set one that i already had. I have tried the first 20 themes on the download list. they all do it. no I dont get any error message its like i dont have any theme at all. all there is is a background and ctrl-alt-f1. I cant figure it out and iv read everything i can find on litestep.
iv checked everything i know to check and still nothing.

hmmm... try reinstalling your litestep installation and see if that helps

Yes I have reinstalled LS a couple of times trying to fix this problem. I'm starting to think maybe it's in windows but i'm not sure. Any ideas on what to check.

Well it took me a few hours but i fixed it. Damn reg problem. Oh well I thank you for the suggestions.
