You can make Start menu just like Vista. A small free utility will do this for you.

Yeah in my tutorial, I told the way to make your XP look-a-like Vista. There are the steps which can make your Windows Explorer same as of Vista.

Narang has already given the link.

^^ Thanks. Actually those window borders are not possible in msstyles. You can have them if you are using WindowBlinds skins.

And if you follow my tut, you'll make your Explorer just like Vista explorer. I hv included all the things like:

1. Vista like Breadcrumbs in addressbar.
2. Vista like toolbar under addressbar
3. Vista like bottom common tasks pane.
4. Vista like driver meters under each drive.

and many other things.
