We have the similar issue that can have the same roots:
6629522 NPE in XPStyle$Skin.getWidth when changing between Win XP
style and Win classic style
I will add your test case to the issue.
Thanks,

Subject: JDK1.7u17 Windows 8 compatibility issue: platform LAF does
not work
Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2013 11:25:52 +0100

I am just facing a compatibility issue with Java 7u17 and Windows 8.
When I
am in "desktop mode" and want to set the platform LAF everything works in
case the default Windows theme is set (the one that looks similar to
Win7).
When Windows 8 is set to a high contrast theme (black background +
whil/yellow foreground), setting of the platform LAF no loger works.
Here is
the stack trace:
java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.XPStyle$Skin.getWidth(Unknown Source)

nown Source)

Is this problem already known and scheduled for a later update version?
