Reply to OT: Why does my Windows 7 look so oldschool?

Hey guys,

I recently bought a Asus EEE pc 1018p for school and today i upgraded the ram to 2 gigs and i don't know if that's what caused it, but now my windows looks super oldschool (like windows 98). The taskbar is all gray, the start button actually says star instead of showing a little windows icon. I'm sure it's just a setting i need to change but i dont know how to do it.

here's what i looks like:


how do i get it looking like it should?

thanks
