When you execute the commands one after the other, what do you see on the 
screen?  Is your screen large enough for 1280 1024 resolution? If not, 
please try

Configuration.DoCommands
Aos.Call Win32AosDisplay.Install ~ (* open full screen display *)
Aos.Call WindowManager.Install  ~ (* Install window manager *)
Aos.Call SkinEngine.Load winxp.skin
Aos.Call MainMenu.Open ~

I'll incorporate Leonardo into the next release (which will be available as 
soon as first bugs are removed, ca. 2 Weeks). Compare next email.
