windows XP and Vista Four Desktop modification

I was looking around on the internet, and i came across this. looking around on instructables, i didnt see it so i thought i'd share it.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT MY IDEA, I AM SIMPLY POSTING IT ON INSTRUCTABLES FOR YOUR INFORMATION

this cool gadget lets you change your whole desktop & windows with two or more key-strokes in a matter of seconds.

Step 1 Get the program

go to: yodm-3d.uptodown.com/en/ and download the file
save it to your desktop
open the file using winrar (www.rarlab.com)
extract all to a file on the desktop
when it is done extracting, you should see an icon like the one in the picture
double click on it, and a grey box should appear
click on the far right tab, and if it isnt already, change it to English
then click on the far left tab, and check / uncheck the buttons you want to press inorder to change to another desktop

gosh thats good could i do it with windows 7 profsenal on my other laptop

[evilgenius 398]

you should try shock 4way 3d. it has more effects than yod'm and it is free. i hate how linux has all these cool effects for free but if you wanna customize windows you have to pay an arm and a leg for it.

octubled, yes that's a real word

whats beryl

[JazzmanSA80]

Nothing wrong with giving the same functionality to XP/Vista users as well. I love Beryl, but I have to boot XP pretty often, and this lets me keep my XP and Linux set-ups as similar as possible in terms of interface. Unfortunately, it looks like the download link is broken.

[evilgenius 398]

i wish linux and windows people would all get along. i love both

[JazzmanSA80]

There is a working download link on this forum thread:<br/><br/><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.winmatrix.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=14076">http://www.winmatrix.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=14076</a><br/>

but these is trial version. how get full version?

[ibuildcoolstuff]

Take a look at shock 4way 3D. You get the same features plus a windows vista areo efect, a grid efect, and a wavy cube efect all for free. To find it, just google Shock 4way 3D Have fun

[stormer1127]

hey cool this is free and almost as good thx

[Crail]

stupid question (probably) can you use shock 4way and yodm at the same time? (different quick keys)

[ibuildcoolstuff]

No, it is a good question. I am sure you can ( if that is what you want to do). You would just have to make sure it did not use too much of your system memory and you would also have to make sure you had a seperate hotkey for both

[Crail]

just tried it. Some problem with managing the desktops. Ie: you will lose what you had on one desktop if you switch back to the other.

[bixter_baxter]

Just use Linux... Hoo Rah 4 Compiz Fusion! Windows is just a user-friendly virus anyhow.

[stargazer418]

I tried this, but your download link seems to be dead. It says "410 Not Found" and says that the server can't be found.

[Davvik]

Cna this be easily removed from the computer?

[ibuildcoolstuff]

Yes Simply go to add/remove programs in control panel and remove it

[jurismah]

This is so cool...i've tried it....but the website you gave has broken links... here is the workable one...http://www.brothersoft.com/deskspace-download-67177.html ....(note: the software was renamed to DeskSpace...and it is trial)

[Open Revolt]

Yod'm 3D is now called deskspace. It isn't freeware, but it gives you all six sides of the cube, instead of four.

[garrett10]

how much memory does it take up?

[xanderperson]

this is pretty cool

[jimmarz]

Thank you borge I got it!!!:)

[GorillazMiko]

This is pretty insane, it looks cool. Even though I myself do not like Windows Vista because of more bugs and stuff, it just looks cool. This is a nicely done Instructable.

[Grey_Wolfe]

Same here on the Vista thing. Only reason we have it is because XP 'wasn't available' for this model. Dell's way of scamming you out of a few hundred dollars because you've got to pay extra to get enough RAM to run Vista smoothly. What a rip-off.

[Redgerr]

ohh lame! i built my computer so i ordered a set of xp to go with it-- costed me like 50$ more but i HATE vista lol... you can allways downgrade if ya want lol :) thats what most of my friends did when they got vista :O good luck with vista lol

[lopez8675]

vistas good, you just have to know how to use it

[Goodhart]

Is some of this site down? I went there and although I was allowed in, once I tried to download, I got this:

410 Gone
Vhost 'chsalmon.club.fr' Not Found.
