May 3, 200422 yr Thanx for the Tutorial.I followed it (and subsequent posts) to get a setup screen matching the default theme following installation (see Shot)But I cannot get the changing text paragraphs to show my text. I have edited the text strings in both winntbbu.dll and winntbba.dll, I have tried all combinations of compressed and not. But still I get the original Microsoft blurb. Is this text hidden somewhere else as well?info; Booting into Virtual PC from ISO imageFurther Info; on testing, the edited text works fine in a setup from inside windows but not when booting from CD5 Rebuilds later - It's working. However, I havn't changed the file just rebuilt the ISO. LOL
May 4, 200422 yr is there somewhere to find some pre-modded winntbbu.dll files?I can host them on my web server if anyone is worried about bandwidth or space issues (unlimited space, unlimited bandwidth)if you wan't your setup screen hosted, Private Message me with a valid download link for it, then I can upload it
May 4, 200422 yr only place I know of. And most of the links are probally bad....http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=8041&st=240
May 4, 200422 yr yeah most of the links are bad, i've already downloaded the three or so from there that the links actually worked i can host this sort of stuff so the links never go bad that would be nicealso, i've done some searching but couldn't find any downloadable message in a bottle files (msgina.dll) i found some links but they were bad too * I'm not very artistic i could make them myself but they would look crap
May 4, 200422 yr well, I hear a few people have wanted mine......i themed it to LOTR. hehe.I shall have to consider letting people have it.
May 12, 200422 yr Why can't I find the file syssetup.dll in my i386 folder???It's in my normal Windows folder, but not in the special created unattended install one, so I can't even try anf get rid of the "registering components" etc. nonsense... Gray
