Recently I released a boot screen for Windows XP which looks similar to Windows 7 boot screen:
Download Windows 7 Boot Screen for Windows XP
A few people requested for a similar boot screen for Windows Vista and I'm glad to announce that its available now.
I have created another boot screen for Windows Vista users which looks very close to Windows 7 boot screen:
There are some limitations with Windows Vista boot screen and we can't have a moving progressbar in the boot screen. So the glow inside the progressbar will not move.
You can download the boot screen from following link:
Download Windows Seven Boot Screen for Vista
Extract the ZIP file and you'll get following 2 files:
- winload.exe.mui
- VistaVG Seven Boot Screen for Vista.tbs
You can use any of the 2 files to enjoy the new boot screen.
1. If you want to use "winload.exe.mui" file, then you'll need to replace existing "winload.exe.mui" file present in "%windir%\System32\en-US" folder with this new one.
First take permission of "winload.exe.mui" file present in "%windir%\System32\en-US" folder using following tutorial:
Add Take Ownership Option in File / Folder Context Menu in Windows Vista
Now rename the file to "winload_backup.exe.mui" or any other name and copy the new "winload.exe.mui" file in this folder.
Now type "msconfig" in RUN or start menu search box and press Enter. Go to "Boot" tab and select "Microsoft Windows Vista" entry. Now enable "No GUI Boot" option and apply it. Restart your system to take affect and enjoy the new boot screen.
2. If you want to use second file "VistaVG Seven Boot Screen for Vista.tbs", then you'll need Tuneup Utilities to apply it which is very safe and easy to use.

Is it possible to make a boot screen with a Windows7 logo boot screen (not animated) and the progress bar? Just seeing the progress bar only and the company name is too plain and it just looks too similar to Windows Vista's default bootscreen before even selecting the "no gui"

Just a question, does the boot screen work on x64 versions of Microsoft Windows Vista? I have Windows Vista 64-Bit Home premium and i don't want to ruin it by changing the 64-Bit OS Loader application with a 32-Bit OS Loader application. Is there a x64-Bit version available? Dan smith's boot logo generator dosnt even work because of the x64 OS.
