Guys
In Windows XP "Hibernate" button is not visible in Shutdown dialog box but when we press <SHIFT> key, it appears in place of "Stand By" button. Its strange and many people want to show it always in shutdown dialog box. So here I'll tell you a way to always show Hibernate button in shutdown dialog box:
1.) Open %windir%\system32\msgina.dll file into Resource Hacker.
2.) Goto Dialog -> 20100 -> 1033.
3.) If you want the following look (Hibernate button at bottom-center) :
Download following text file, open it and copy the whole contents then replace existing code with the copied code:
4.) OR if you want following look (Hibernate button in the same row of other items) :
Download following text file, open it and copy the whole contents then replace existing code with the copied code:
PS: Pressing <SHIFT> key will still work.

There's a simpler, faster and safer way to accomplish this:
In the registry, create this key:
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System\Shutdown
Create a DWORD value named ShowHibernateButton and set its data to 1.
Check your shudown dialog.

Hey, VG.
When I do this, I do not have the Goodbye and Log Off Windows when I click on Log Off/Turn Off. I do see it in a black text really small in the Upper Left corner.
And then on both of them, I see and small black text that says "Flag" in the Upper Right corner.
Thanks!
Here are some screen shots:

I don't know why the Log Off one is like that...

^^ click on the arrow buttons in the dialog box and use arrow keys on keyboard to move them a bit up so that they can fit in the background image.
You can do the same thing to delete the "Flag" text. Simply click on it and press Delete key.
Regarding "Good Bye" text, I have no idea why its showing in small black font.

I got the buttons figured out.
Also, when I click [Alt], I can see the big white text... But I still see the black small text.

^^ Try to change the dialog box font to some other font and also increase its size. Edit 5th line:
FONT 8, "MS Shell Dlg"

I'm really sorry to have to be so broad about this, but one of the shell32.dll, explorer.exe or msgina.dll files contains a dialog box that looks like it has 3 large square buttons in the middle row, all styled with a classic look.
I regret not knowing where it is, but if I were to edit this dialog, would the shutdown box not be much more flexible?
