Want to change Windows Login Screen

Last summer I was watching Tech TV and I remember they explained how one can change the login screen without having to use the software (I forget their names).

Given that I’m quite tired of the same old generic Windows XP login screen, I’m looking for a change.

Could I be hooked up with good login screens and also taught how I can go about incorporating this change?

Muchos gracias! :k:

Re: Want to change Windows Login Screen

you have a long way to learn how to do that, well i have a laptop pc, but it totally looks like a mac design. i mean that “apple logo” instead of windows, objectdock which shows all the icons…

you need this program first: http://www.tgtsoft.com/ its called style xp

you can also go to http://browse.deviantart.com/ to choose millions of diff things…

Re: Want to change Windows Login Screen

Nope. I don't want StyleXP. That is the software that I was referring to, which I couldn't recall.

They showed a way of changing the login screen without having to use software such as StyleXP.

Re: Want to change Windows Login Screen

I am not sure how they did and are you referring to Techtv= known recently “G4TV”
you can always go to their website and search through about windows log in…etc

P.S. you learning spanish kiya :smiley:

I know one thing there is a tweak utility at the microsoft website, Power toys which allow you to change and tweak the way you log in and start up windows, you will have to be more specific what you mean by “change the way how to Log-IN” care to be specific?

Sadiyah, You can use logon loader: http://logonloader.danielmilner.com/

and then search for the different logon screens available at many website around the net, like ThemeXP: http://www.themexp.org/listings.php?type=login&view=downloads

Gizzy, thanks.

Where can I look for login screen skins on the net?

Re: Want to change Windows Login Screen

XP> Start> Control Panel> User Accounts> Change the way users Logon/Off> Use The Welcome Screen (ON/OFF)

Re: Want to change Windows Login Screen

Gizzy, I downloaded the software you suggested, but it wouldn't run.

aquapool, I don't want it off. I just want a different screen.
