I'm gettting the same glitch with the Diamonds theme. I tried uninstalling the Impulse version, and installing the one provided via link to no avail. The Sins of a Solar Empire theme works fine. I'll provide some specs for comparison's sake.

                                   Intel core-duo E6850 @ 3.0ghz

                                   Nvidia 8800gt,16:10 monitor at 1680x1050

                                   Windows Xp sp3

I've been having the same issues with the garbled "static" issue.  I get it no matter how I try to install the theme, whether via direct download, via Impulse, etc., and I did go into MyColors and entered the appropriate email/registration information.

I have the same problem as well, regardless where I get it from. Something with the theme itself is wrong methinks.
