Change Boot Logo/Screen?

@RBCC

Sorry For Responding So Late,

you Open OobeFldr.dll in Restorator OR Resource hacker or a simular app

and the exe file is called GettingStarted.exe

NOT Welcome.exe OR WelcomeCenter.exe like you would assume

I made one that I think is pretty cool, the terrible youtube video doesnt do it justice..

if you are still lookin for a program to change your boot screen you can use a program called win 7 boot updater works great i been using it for about 6 weeks now and no probleams yet i hope this helps

If you wanna "tweak" your os without even rolling up your sleeves imo is lame and lazy. That way you'll never learn how to actually "tweak" your os.

Well said

... all i said is that most people want a neat little app or .reg key to install to achieve the end result . . . if not for hackers a lot of os customization would not be possible.

A. Go write an app yourself. Programmers don't have the time to endlessly write lines of code for others who don't understand a complex system beyond *point* and *click*

B. Hackers are really just programmers, in a sense, in the way that script is manipulated into doing something different, sniffing for security holes or making back doors

If it wasn't for freelance programmers with a lot of time on their hands, a lot of great apps and software wouldn't be floating around.

Hell yea it's worth! I want my grinning eyepatched skull back with the text saying: Micro$hit Windows Pirated Edition, Right to copy

Bythe way,I never had a single virus with XP ('cept for blaster mybe ) and i used a TON of bootscreens (which were freakin' exe's! Dont tell me, THOSE weren't security risks!)

LOL

I saw this thread when I was searching for a way to change to boot screen, and later I found this nifty little applet which lets you do just that!!!!

My question is why bother changing it in the first place.? do you reboot that many times a day that it gets annoying?
