right click on desktop, prop,apper,windows and buttons change to classic, and the colour scheme will have more options, but will be in classic windows mode.

Hello

Click on the right hand mouse button somewhere on the desktop, select properties. Click on the tab 'desktop' and then in the bottom right hand corner there is color. Click on the arrow and select black. Click okay.

Its not black but the Royale theme is a little different and freely available to download (its basically the XP Media Centre theme).

Style XP or Windowblinds are about the only ways to do this safely.
