The vista bootscreen is located in ntoskrnl.exe, bitmap 1, however, the colour palette is completely black (a leftover from XP which uses the same bootscreen code, in XP they made the colours all black due to a limitation I believe), so you will need to open it in Photoshop, go to Image, Mode, Color Table, and select "System (Windows)". Click OK and you'll see a vista boot screen with odd colours. Just replace the text with black, and there you go. I'm not sure if you have to change the palette back to all black though, but if I recall correctly, the bootloader should ignore the colour pallette and just use the one hardcoded into the bootloader itself.
