I tried installing LS on my Vista machine and had problems. I tried with both the LOSI and Omar installer. I kept getting errors when trying to install a theme and assumed it was because I had Vista. But LS looked so neat that I decided to reformat with XP. I did so and tried LOSI again. Got the same errors. Uninstalled LOSI. Tried the Omar installer. Now when I boot up I have no Start menu, pop-up, or anything. I switched back to the explorer shell and here I am. What the heck am I doing wrong :(.
I also did the update when installing with Omar's installer.
I uninstalled and reinstalled, updated, and now I have the shell working. But I can't use any themes. Either I get the errors I did before, or nothing at all happens.
The error is: "The application or DLL C:\LiteStep\modules\lslua-0.6.5\args.lua.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette."
When you install the theme are you on the Internet?
Reformatted again. Installed nVidia drivers, Pidgin, IE7. Updated Windows XP. Istalled LOSI. Get this:

the same error I get... and whenever I check the module folder the file is right where it's supposed to be...
Normally it means that a module you are dependent on isn't found, like xPaintClass. However, jkey doesn't use anything but itself. Is this on the default theme or only themes you are switching to? My suggestion would be to try installing to a folder without a space in it, ie c:\LiteStep, and see what happens then. Maybe the theme isn't properly handling the space.
In my case, it involved the default theme. I used the LOSI 0.1 installer and it worked out fine but when I log off and then try to log on again, I got the error.
Vista is not currently supported. See

It seems I forgot to mention it... I'm running Windows XP sp2
