Bootskin doesn't work with all BIOS's...and is for XP, definitely NOT for Vista.

There's a difference between wanting to 'look like' you are loading Vista's boot on XP and actually altering/loading a boot into Vista...;)

Anyone running XP or Vista 32 bit can change boot screens as well as log in screens with TuneUp Utilities 2007/2008. It will not run on 64 bit and SP1 causes conflicts with other program modules... hopefully LogonStudioVista will be compatible with 64 bit Vista (and maybe add a boot screen app as well!!!) Best of all worlds... :HOT:

im on Vista 64 bit and it runs fine for me.. boot skins would be cool but the default boot screen just flashes across my screen so fast I dont really get to look at it...

I'm stumped... Vista 64, with or without SP1 will not change boot up screens, keeps the crappy Vista one... when I apply LogOnVista it takes me to the 3FingerSalute screen and doesn't take effect! Are there any parameters that you changed that I should be aware of? As far as your screen flying by, thats a problem lots would love to share... what are you running? Thanks in advance... :d
