Er, it doesn't make any difference what brand your computer is. xp

For Windows XP your best bet is probably the program "WindowBlinds" by StarDock. I believe they have a trial version, or a dumbed-down free version at least, that you could try out, but if you don't want to pay for the full version... Well, the cracked copies aren't difficult to find at all; used to use it myself before the novelty wore off and I switched back to the built-in green XP theme. pirate

Just keep in mind with WindowBlinds that you won't have a new "theme," but rather a "skin" that covers up your theme. It works just fine, but WindowBlinds has to be running at all times (the icon stays in the tray by the system clock) or else the skin can't show up.

*If you want a cracked copy, I can't help you with that. I'm pretty sure it's against Gaia TOS to facilitate pirating of software (they can't get mad at me for condoning it though, hehe). I will say it's easy enough to find though, especially if you know how to work BitTorrent...

EDIT PS: Also, can't help you find a Steampunk skin, but I know there are plenty out there. You could probably make your own, but I never bothered to figure out how to make the skins.

This is the only Steampunk Theme I could find. Now... I'm not exactly sure it's an entire theme, but I would imagine that if it skins the Windows Menu it skins the whole bar. I got that link from here...

This page has a bunch of icons, fonts, wallpapers, application skins and even iPod skins with a Steampunk feel to them.
