Changing Windows logo on 'old-style' (domain) logon

Recommended Posts

I'm customizing my Windows XP Pro. installation to in the details, it has even gone so far even before logon it has been pimped.

On logon, I modified the register so that it is using the Metallic Luna theme on logon and not the blue theme, also the background color has been changed to the beautiful gray/silver color from Windows 2003.

Except one thing remains what I REALLY would like to change: The blue Windows XP logo on logon, while loging in and shuting down the machine.

I would like to replace this logo with the logo from an Windows Server 2003 installation; just for the simple reason that logo is gray/silver.

But I can't find how to do it on the internet; all how-to's I found where for modifying the 'Welcome Screen' (family logon), but I'm using the old style logon/domain logon.

Any ideas how to do this??

Indeed, in the Windows 2003 version of msgina.dll I found the images.

Added them to the XP version of msgina.dll and that works.

Now could some running Windows 2003 check something for me?

In regedit,

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Colors\

And then the value of "background"??

Stupid enough I override the value with 0 0 0, and now I don't know the color code for the orginal gray anymore :realmad:

Should have written it down :blushing:

Otherwise I have to install win 2k3 in vmware only for the bloody color code
