gotnho Posted June 8, 2005 Posted June 8, 2005 (edited) Just wondering if it is violate any "EULA" when replace window's boot screen with our own? boot screen is the one w/ windows logo and the blue progress bar thing. Any info would be helpful. Thanks. Edited June 8, 2005 by gotnho
aktivedesign Posted June 8, 2005 Posted June 8, 2005 Technically speaking, I believe modification of any windows file is illegal... especially the boot screen but I am not sure about this...
gotnho Posted June 8, 2005 Author Posted June 8, 2005 I'm just thinking of making a boot screen with my company's logo and deploy system w/ them instead of the boring windows.... Since it's a company i need to make sure it is legal to do so. can some one confirm this?
boooggy Posted June 9, 2005 Posted June 9, 2005 what kind of license is used?also u can read the eula> click on my computer>help>about windows>END-USER LICENSE AGREEMENT.
gotnho Posted June 9, 2005 Author Posted June 9, 2005 the license is just Pro version. my English is really bad and I dont like reading EULA, ehehehhe a bit lazy here. Any one know?
suryad Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 Yeah I would think any binary files modified without the parent company in this case MS's express authorization would be illegal. If you talk to MS and their reps say yes it is ok...then I am sure it is not a problem.
Noise Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 OMGI think I modified my registry!!!! That's a binary file!
SiMoNsAyS Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 for what i've understood, modifying files for your personal use is not illegal.always as long as you don't share your knowledge or modified files.ps: ... leave regedit out of this lol
suryad Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 Haha then by definition of modding all of the members here who have used nLite are lawbreakers!!
Chester^ Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 (edited) well, if it is illegal dont edit the boot screen, make a new one and use that insted Edited June 10, 2005 by Chester^
Lost Soul Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 well its not illegal, as long as you dont get caught lol,, shhh be werry werry quiet
jack99 Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 illegal dont want bill dropping a apple pc on my head.lol
matthewk Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 I use /NOGUIBOOT in boot.ini. Is there a way to add this to the boot.ini not manually? Or, to replace /FASTDETECT with /NOGUIBOOT? I read somewhere removing /FASTDETECT would improve boot speed. Thanks
