How too add the theme

Have you patched you system for allowing custom themes? if not you will have to do that.
I would use Universal Theme Patcher, it works great and are free too use, you can get it here: http://www.windows7download.com/win7.../mnefyyoo.html
Note: If you are running a 64-bit OS you have to patch 5 files in total, run both 32-bit and 64-bit paches.
 
This theme requires you to have Theme Resource Changer installed and running.
Read more about TRC here: http://virtualcustoms.net/showthread.php/31635-How-to-use-theme-resource-changer
 
Too add the theme, unzip the pack, and add the Theme folder and Windows Theme file (theme-name.msstyle) to: C:\Windows\Resources\Themes

Now you can go to your desktop, right-click and choose Personalize, and you will find it with the other themes you have installed.
