i've successfully integrated uAE 2.0 and royale theme on my UA_XP cdthanks to this thread

.. but i can't find info on how to integrate login/shutdown screen that i have with XPize 4.0 .. i really like the screen .. blends well with royale theme..

i've searched for logonui.exe but no luck .. if anyone have info please help!

tia

after looking at this thread , i copied logonuiX.exe from my XPized computer to new bare computer.. but it did not work.. i'm guessing i need to copy more needed files in order for this to work?

did you use the makecab command on the logonui file?

Copy XPize_Logon.exe to your system32 folder. Read this in order to know how to make that unattendedly. Then apply this sample regtweak:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
"UIHost"="C:\Windows\system32\XPize_Logon.exe"

i have not.. so i just makecab xpize_logon.exe to xpize_logon.ex_ and put it in my $OEM$/$$/system32 ? and do that reg tweak?

That should work, but didnt try myself. So dont blame me

seems like i can just put xpize_logon.exe uncabbed. it is working now.

thanks

*edit*

well. i put xpize_logon.exe on my $$/system32 folder and did

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
"UIHost"="C:\Windows\system32\XPize_Logon.exe"

but after install, UIHost is set to 'logonui.exe' and i have to manually change it to "C:\Windows\system32\XPize_Logon.exe" in order to work..

any idea what i did wrong?

thanks

Oh yes yes, uncabbed. Sorry, didnt read you post properly.

YES. I know what you did wrong. I made exactly the same mistake. Your .reg file is wrong. It should be:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
"UIHost"="%systemroot%\\system32\\XPize_Logon.exe"

Important are the double slashes. If you do not use them, Windows will not accept the new setting.

BTW, it is better to use %systemroot% and not C:\Windows, because if you install Windows onto another partition, the logon screen won't work. (Now don't tell me that you always install Windows to C:\Windows. I do the same)

i see. i'll try that now

thank you!

You dont have to write the path! If its in system32 Xpize_Logon.exe is enough.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
"UIHost="XPize_Logon.exe"
