1. I've XP but maybe this applies to Vista too... I have no .theme files at all (except for Luna & Classic), and I'm able to select any of my VStyles (Tiger and LeopardXP, plus Windows default ones).
2. Try double-clicking the .msstyles / msstyle.mui file, and see if this applies the theme.

Are your msstyles for vista? You cannot use XP themes.
