Yes, and that is the parameter you are supposed to be passing your
TRUE/FALSE values with.  MSDN's documentation even says as much.

You have to cast:

    SystemParametersInfo(0x1025, 0, (void*)TRUE, 0);
    SystemParametersInfo(0x1025, 0, (void*)FALSE, 0);

Or possibly use an actual pointer:

    BOOL bEnabled = TRUE;
    SystemParametersInfo(0x1025, 0, &bEnabled, 0);

    bEnabled = FALSE;
    SystemParametersInfo(0x1025, 0, &bEnabled , 0);

That is not a standard drop shadow.  Adobe draws its own shadows onto the
screen manually.
