Have been trying to install Tweakui 1.33 in Windows 2000 per the
instructions, but it doesn't seem to do anything. It comes up like my
Tweakui in Windows 98, saying that i needs to be installed in Control Panel,,
but after clicking OK. Nothing happens. It doesn't look like it is doing
anything and there is no icon in the Control Panel. What am I missing?

It can be stubborn sometimes. Try installing from a folder without any spaces in
the names. If need be, create a new folder called c:\temp, or something similar,
and then move all Tweakui files to it then install from there.

If still no joy, sometimes it only works if installed from a floppy disc.

There was instructions from a MVP around a week ago about using Tweak XP
installed for Windows 2000.

XP Power Toys Page:

Tweak XP Direct Link:

Here's a direct link to Tweakomatic (saves you going throuch the
authentification):
