Need a little clarification

[socallx]

Hello everyone,

I have been addicted to customizing my HD2 ever since I found out I could. Just today I found a cab that would remove the "start" text away from the windows start menu icon. When I installed the cab and soft re-set the phone I got an error that would freeze the phone on the windows screen. I had no choice but to hard reset the phone and start all over (i backed up my phone so it is just a matter of putting it all back).

My question.....I think I installed a cab that was not compatible with my ROM. I did not pay attention to that when I did it. Would that cause the issue I had? If so how would I go about verifying which ROM I have to avoid this problem?

Thanks for the help and to all those who provide awesome tweaks and cabs to choose from.
