Wallpaper and screensaver


troycicle

Recommended Posts

I want to install Windows, and have a different wallpaper that I've choosen. I did this $OEM$\$$\Web\Wallpaper, this

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\General]

"BackupWallpaper"="c:\\windows\\web\\wallpaper\\xppaper.jpg"

"Wallpaper"="c:\\windows\\web\\wallpaper\\xppaper.jpg"

replaced xppaper.jpg with my wallpaper

made the batch file and put it here C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\install\

ECHO.

ECHO Applying Registry Tweaks...

REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\install\RegTweaks.reg

and edited the winnt.sif file and put this

[GuiRunOnce]

%systemdrive%\install\batch_file.cmd

When I installed Windows, the wallpaper showed up when I right clicked my desktop, choose properties, and went into the desktop tab. My question is, how do I make it my default background when I install Windows? Also, I'd like to know how to put my own screensaver in, and make it default. I'm not using the hacked uxtheme.dll if that has any effect.

Instead of:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\General]

"BackupWallpaper"="c:\\windows\\web\\wallpaper\\xppaper.jpg"

"Wallpaper"="c:\\windows\\web\\wallpaper\\xppaper.jpg"

This worked:

;Set the default wallpaper

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]

"Wallpaper"="C:\\WINDOWS\\web\\wallpaper\\Filename.jpg"

"WallpaperStyle"="2"

"TileWallpaper"="0"

Just change Filename.jpg to your picture
