Well ive given up all hope on getting window blinds to work but i found this uxtheme patch with enables windows to recognise and display non microsoft themes. Also this Vista Anthracite pack comes with an installer (all i wanted was the vista look) so i dont need any apps.

Thanks everyone for your support!!!
