which program are people using to make these screens is it

[Bachus]

I'd attempt to make a chrome setup screen, but unless I can change the text color it would be a little hard to read (not that anyone pays attention to the text anyway...).

b0r3d, i solved the same problem with photoshop 7.

create a new RGB file and do not change into an indexed colours file.

do your picture.

menu -> save as internet

select gif and 256 colours.

close photoshop and convert the gif into bmp using acdsee like tool and it's ok.

Photoshop doesn't like bmp file !!

Not too shabby! You should post it in the other topic

[amdmstf]

Well that is a very good step on the setup

[perco]

I386\SYSTEM32\SMSS

I386\WINNTBBA.DLL

I386\WINNTBBU.DLL

I386\WINNT32U.DLL

I386\USETUP.EXE

that all i found so far.

Hi,

I came across a link to this thread on another forum and thought I might give this a go.

I went looking through the i386 folder on my XP CD and found all these files except winntbbu.dll, there is however a winntbbu.dl_ file.

Do I decompress this file ("expand -r winntbbu.dl_" - found this command in the Completed XP Setup Screens thread) or should there be a winntbbu.dll file as well?

[DaveXP]

There should be a winntbbu.dll and a winntbbu.dl_ but if you only have one one decompress change it and then recompress it.

[perco]

thanks for the quick reply

Does this work in WMWare ?

I tried to alter my winntbbu.dll file (compressed it and replaced the old one), but it won't show the image. I downloaded an existing modded file with the same problem.

Any ideas ?

Thanks,

Magnus
