I have a theory that this may be something that's triggered by something in the startup of MM, but stays as long as MM is open. This happens with Quicktime in Firefox, if you view an embedded quicktime file in firefox (just like if you view one normally) it changes the color scheme to basic. Even when you've finished viewing the quicktime file, the color scheme stays basic until you close firefox, because it recognises that the program that had turned the color scheme to basic had closed. Could a similar thing be happening with MM?
(also, does anyone else have this problem with firefox?
)
just remove quicktime icon from tray. in quick rime preferences uncheck tray icon. also check the version.

Deleted the "d_iPhone.dll" file from the plugins folder and the message went away!

I had the same problem, deleted the "d_iPhone.dll", and it fixed it for me also. Why would this file cause Aero to break? I have 4 computers with MM on it and this only happened on one. The other 3 have the dll and have no problems!

Please note this is an old thread.
I have this problem still and none of the advice here helps. I've not modified MM in any way / default installation. I'm using a similar spec to some of the others here:
MM 3.2.4.1304
Core 2 Duo e8400 3ghz
2GB DDRII
9600GT XFX 512mb (Latest graphics driver direct from website just added on a fresh install)
PC running Windows 7 32bit
2 x Philips 190cw monitors
160gb hdd SATA2
I have always had this problem with MM, both when using Windows XP and now Windows 7. It flashes the screen when switching in/out of MM. No compatibility mode, no fancy settings, latest drivers.

i've never had this issue that i can remember?
what monkey does is use check boxe's on the option panel you pick the skin in. for you to change to windows color scheme
or use the skin.
make sure that is not checked and i know you must have done that but just try checking it again, and then click okay.
then go back and uncheck it and click okay to see if that has changed it , you will have to restart monkey each time
you change that option.
i'm thinking maybe the registry has not cleared a check mark and needs to be hit again to get it cleared. thats what
i'm saying to try and do it again.
but if that is not working make a debug report and send in to support.

So are you saying that I need to ensure that I override the windows system theme with MM? I tried setting the checkbox in the skin section which reads:
"Override Skin theme with Windows System theme (requires restart)" and I tried it on and off (with restart) but in both cases it causes the theme to switch to "windows 7 basic". I was hoping to avoid this or at least avoid the message.

Never saw that here, even if I run MM in compatibility mode. Are your graphics drivers up to date?

Please read previous post for specs etc.
All I can say is that everything is working but the screen flashes with this message when Aero is on, and it really is a new install, just formated hdd a few days ago and reinstalled.

Update:
I turned off the firewall to see if it was controlling the registry but didn't have much of an effect except to give me this message instead:
Code: Select all
The color scheme has been changed
The following program has performed an action that requires Windows tp temporarily change the color scheme to Windows 7 Basic.
Program MediaMonkey - Audio Library
Publisher Ventis Media, Inc.
Process identifier (PID):3132
Windows will automatically change the color scheme back to Windows Aero when this program or other programs performing similar actions are no longer running.
I tried switching the checkbox in skin section multiple times but to no avail. I don't think there are any other programs capable of controlling the registry.

The registry really should not affect this at all. You've checked the shortcut properties to ensure it isn't being run in compatibility mode?
