^What do you mean you have to do it manually every time?

Another way to change XP to Vista or your own customized theme is using Neowin UXTheme Patcher and downloading themes from DeviantArt. It doesn`t lag at all because it`s not running a program to change your theme.

UXTheme Patcher
UXTheme Multi-Patchers - Neowin Forums
NOTICE: It patches the UXTheme.dll for Windows XP/SP1/SP2 Beta/RTM and 2003.

Here is a nice tutorial for installing and using visual styles:

There are other patches out there for other versions, but you need to look for it. Google, or search the Neowin forums.

For more information, here`s a thread on this topic:

It also has info about the XP SP3 patcher if you have SP3.
