There’s a little utility that you can use to create the boot logo formats. First you’ll need to download the <a href="http://www.computa.co.uk/staff/dan/?p=18" target="_blank">Vista Boot Logo Generator 1.1</a> utility, which we’ll use to create the correct logo image type. Once it’s installed, you need to make sure that you run the application as administrator: <img src="http://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/01/WindowsLiveWriter/CreateaCustomBootLogoforWindowsVista_604/image%7B0%7D%5B1%5D.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />We should choose an appropriate logo file. Since I’m a big fan of linux, and not as big a fan of Windows Vista, I chose an image of Tux making windows suck that I found over <a href="http://www.arabx.com.au/tux/" target="_blank">here</a>. <img src="http://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/01/WindowsLiveWriter/CreateaCustomBootLogoforWindowsVista_604/image%7B0%7D.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Choose two versions of the image, one needs to be 800×600 at 24 bit color, and the other 1024×768 at the same color depth. Both files must be in Bitmap(BMP) format. Save the file somewhere like your desktop, because we can’t yet copy directly to the correct directory, until we take ownership of the file. To take ownership of the file, you’ll have to open an administrator command prompt. (type cmd into the start menu search box, and hit Ctrl+Shift+Enter), and then run this command:takeown /f C:\Windows\System32\en-US\winload.exe.mui Now run this command, substituting geek for your username:cacls C:\Windows\System32\en-US\winload.exe.mui /G geek:F Now copy the file that you created into the C:\windows\system32\en-US\ directory. Make sure you choose the overwrite option. Now you’ll need to use the msconfig utility. Just type msconfig into the start menu search box, and then click the Boot tab: <img src="http://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/01/WindowsLiveWriter/CreateaCustomBootLogoforWindowsVista_604/image%7B0%7D%5B10%5D.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Check the “No GUI boot” option, and we’re all ready to reboot and test it out. Sweet!</blockquote>
