Description
A friend of mine asked me to do him a simple Rainmeter skin a while ago, I came up with the first version ([link] ).Here is the second one, most simplest text based, backgroundless skin.
Please install the fonts.

Can you see/read the text on the preview image? If you can, then I'm thinking you havn't installed the font that goes with the skin, it's in the zip file

Thanks, glad you like the skin, SWAP is the virtual memory (à certain amount of memory from you HDD) that your PC uses in addition to the RAM

It should work on any resolutions, it works fine on my 1920x1200, and never heard of people having resolution issues, have you istalled the included fonts?

Try to close (exit) the app and re-open it, that should do

Download this app called Rainmeter
[link]
unzippe it, place the whole folder wherever you cant, no installation is needed, then put any skin files into the "skins" folder, install the fonts that came with the skins zip file (if there're any) into sys fonts folder, open (or exit and re-open if it's already running) Rainmeter.exe or sometime only refresh it, then you're good to go
