Guys I upgraded my battery to a 9 cell and i don't know if that's what caused it, but now my windows looks super oldschool (like windows 98). The taskbar is all gray, the start button actually says star instead of showing a little windows icon. I'm sure it's just a setting i need to change but i dont know how to do it.

My laptop is Inspiron 1545

    right click on your desktop and go to Personalize and then change ur current theme. i think u set it up to windows classic now, change it to something else like windows 7.
