| In past so few months, there are lot of tips appearing on web on this topic, but now you can do this in a simple way. All you need is two images at 800x600 and 1024x768 saved as 24-bit windows bitmaps and follow steps given below: - First of all download Dan Smith's Vista Boot Logo Generator.
- Install and then run from the link in the Start Menu.
- Browse for images you want to display on your boot screen and select both the 800x600 and 1024x768 resolution bitmap.
- Click on File and select Save Boot Screen File as and save your file.
- In next step, you will need to replace the winload.exe.mui file in C:\Windows\System32\en-us with your .mui file you just created.
- The last step is to enable the alternative boot screen setting by following the steps given below:
- Click on the start orb and type in "MSCONFIG" in the textbox.
- Once the System Configuration tool loads, click on the Boot tab.
- Under Boot Options check "No GUI Boot".
- Hit OK and reboot to see the new screen.
- The next time you reboot you should see your new boot screen.
Note: Before you copy in your new file, make a backup of the original on some secure location. If you have any type of problems with Windows Vista not booting properly, boot up machine with Windows Vista install CD and replace the winload.exe.mui file with your backup. |
