Text Mode Installation Help

Recommended Posts

Hey,

How can I change the text used in the Blue (and yellow) text mode installer?

Like this:

xpsetup9nc.th.png

I have no problems with hacking resources or hex editing, I just can't seem to find the right file(s) to look in!

Any info much appreciated :hello:

Thanks in advance :yes:

I am not sure but I know that these resource hackers works for only win32 executables. Text-mode setup is not a 32bit application.

If there is a way to hack resources of a non 32 bit application, you should dig files in $WIN_NT$.~BT or $WIN_NT$.~LS folder(the smaller one that loads text-mode setup) created when you start setup within another windows with the option "copy setup files to harddisk" selected( with /makelocalsource switch).
