===========================
NOTE: If you are facing problems while saving the file after editing in resource hacker, then make sure you have disabled WFP (Windows File Protection) service using WFP Patcher, it can be found in our "Download" section.
Also if you are getting error "Can't create file...", that means you have edited and saved the file in past and there is a backup file which need to be deleted before saving this file again. Go to "System32" folder and you'll see a file having "shell32_original.dll". Delete it and try to save the file in resource hacker.

2.) Add 404.bmp at 404 location.
3.) Add 405.bmp at 405 location.
4.) Now download following text file, open it and copy the whole contents then goto Dialog -> 1003 -> 1033 and replace existing code with the copied code:
You can change the strings according to your needs.

What a nice hack. i did the procedure( i hope correctly.
) but everytime i click "Run" on the start panel, nothing was changed. What could be the problem sir? 
VG
^^ Thanks. You need to take care following thing:
Patch WFP (Windows File Protection) Service, which automatically replace hacked system files with original files, thats why you'll not see the changes. Just download WFP patcher and run it. You can get the patcher from "Downloads" section.

Sir, (corrections****) could you share more versions of your run dialog?

I have left using XP now, so no more hacks.
You can make changes yourself using my Resource Hacker tut and can give the dialog box some unique looks.
